Combe Aux Moines Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2022

2022 vintage. Sampled via Coravin. Medium-medium heavy body. Vineyard from the highest point in Gevrey-Chambertin. Gorgeous throughout already with surprising, back-end spice fest. Tannins slightly muted but started to creep out after a few minutes in the glass. This likes to speed and is going places. 1.30.26. — 5 days ago

Excellent invention under the right circumstances. The 9 yrs of remaining storage after use, in my experience, overstated.

A more robust Pinot. Low transparency. Good fruit with some Tannin present so will age and smooth out over time. April 2025. — 9 months ago

Gevrey-Chambertin Pinot Noir 2019

2019 vintage. Sampled via Coravin. Medium-medium heavy body. Slightly astringent immediately on the finish but the intro + mid-palate was filled with balanced fruit. Feel this will be right as rain with a decant or hour of air. A consistent Gevrey performance. 1.30.26. — 5 days ago

La Landonne Côte-Rôtie Syrah 2019

2019 vintage. Last tasted 3.8.25 (9.6) and 8.19.23 (9.5). Excellent fill and great cork. Decanted and tasted after 30 minutes. Small amount of chunky sed. Medium-heavy body but starting to slowly thin out. Excellent colo(u)r. Alongside the roasted nuts and smoked meats flavors, this drops a current cola-nut driven finish. Smooth and harmonious. Love this producer along with a nod to consumers/wine trade for keeping these ridiculous pricings down. 10.10.25. — 4 months ago

Happy New Year! 🍷

Perfect pairing w/ my Dutch oven braised short-ribs & horseradish mashed potatoes.

Dark currants, brambly blackberries, dark cherries, brilliant cherries, strawberries, iron pan, dry shale, dry herbs-sage lead, dry crushed rocks, limestone, volcanics, roasted chestnuts (a signature of this producer), some black coffee, tarriness, dry top soil, dark spices, some red to mid berry cola, red, dark flowers, violets, excellent, round acidity, balance for days, nice structure/tension with elegance that lands squarely on dry earthiness.
