Chorey-les-Beaune Chardonnay 2022

A lot of character here for a peripheral village white burg. Nose has melted butter, pear, bright limestone minerality. Nice intensity on entry and nice acids balance. Lacks a bit of depth, perhaps, but lots of value here. — 7 months ago

Excellent concentration in this value Burg, quite dark and extracted, yet still retaining balance and complexity. Could pass for a fine CA PN. Very well made. — 5 years ago

En attendant Les Beaux Jours Sauvignon 2017

Sun striking the elixir, a rainbow of gold and straw in the glass.

Melon, limestone, and grapefruit rind in the nose.

Subtle, slight carbonation and an ease in drinkability.

Lemon zest, yellow zucchini, grapefruit, and the essence of Mandarin oranges balance for a pleasurable drinking experience. Great with 1000 day aged gouda and cuts the heat of mango habanero cheddar nicely.

Chorey Les Beaune Pinot Noir 2019

Perfumed nose of fall leaves and strawberries, but definitely leaning towards the earthy side. Palate is in a good place right now: bright and lifted, yet the acidity is well balanced. Earthy, damp fall leaves covering a hint of strawberry and brambly raspberry. — 4 years ago

Les Beaux Jours Coteaux du Giennois Pinot Noir - Gamay Blend 2022

The 4th wine in the degustation with Byron and Paulina. A 50/50 blend of Pinot Noir and Gamay from the Loire Valley of all places. A great wine to serve blind to MW and MS students. I recall strawberry and red berry notes in general with quite fluid tannins. So easy to drink. I can’t recall the matching dish but it was a perfect match - duck was involved. — 2 years ago

@Peter van den Besselaar Yes Peter, the matching degustation wines at this restaurant were very new and unusual. The partner of the chef was a French woman from Bordeaux who was our sommelier. The chef was an Australian who spent 7 years working in France in Michelin rated restaurants where he met the Somm. A great partnership

I thought that this was excellent. 50/50 Gamay and Pinot Noir. Unusually for my experience with Passetoutgrains from Burgundy, this blend seemed to be Pinot Noir dominant. A beautiful match with the duck.

Pernand-Vergelesses Pinot Noir 2019

falling somewhere between fresh and astringent this one needed some time out of the gate. 2 days helps lure out something damp leaf-like, baked berry, and stained pomegranate pith, some pleasant bitters, and a lovely garnet color with a pale blue meniscus. — 5 years ago

Château Villa Bel-Air

Graves Red Bordeaux Blend 2014

This estate was bought in 1988 buy Jean-Michel Cazes (Lynch Bages and more recently Haut-Batailley) and sold in 2017 to the Balland family (Baret). 50% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Cabernet Franc. Aged in used Lynch Bages barrels. This 2014 is in a very good place now, but should age well for a few more years. Fresh and elegant, with typical Graves spiciness. Not the most complex but a very solid and seductive effort for the vintage. — 5 years ago
