First night seemed more advanced than it should, with brownish rim, but perhaps that was sediment? Somehow seemed fresher the second day. — 4 months ago

Comes out earthy and a touch funky, which fades with time open, leaving behind pure brambly berry fruit. Delicate, with good concentration and length. — 4 years ago

Actually a robust wine prominently showing that 2003 heat I’d come across every so often. Makes it interesting mixed into the more classical Burg profile, perhaps not silkily balanced but still thought provoking and a good one with Evan’s over salted soyu chicken — 6 months ago
Rich strawberry. Smoky. Roses. Sweet. Plum, raspberry. Georges Lignier et Fils Morey Saint Denis 22 @560, domaine, 250715 — a year ago
1986 vintage. Intoxicating perfume of crushed strawberries and sweet roses at the height of the bloom. Profound with layered fruit and velvety tannin, delicate and concentrated at the same time. Very long. An amazing effort for the vintage, that in Decanter is described as "a large crop of indifferent quality with poor concentration". Highly recommended. — 4 years ago
The 2018 “Clos de la Roche” pours a deep ruby/purple color with medium viscosity and light staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is youthful and shows a combination of tart and ripe red and dark fruits: raspberry, strawberry, blackberry, pepper, exotic spices, minerals and some fine wood. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long. This has an overall character of freshness and the fruit is so beautiful…but this is such a baby. While it shows its quality now, I won’t touch my next bottle for another 10 years. Better after 2035 (to my palate) and through 2058. — a year ago
