The color had amber tones. Some unpleasant smell faded somewhat. Still nice fruit and elegance. — 16 days ago

Definitely had this as a lesser grand cru by process of elimination in our blind options, as without them I wouldn’t have had it in grand cru territory. This was so light in comparison with the NSG’s, especially the 19’ pair. It wasn’t exactly a bad thing though as I really enjoyed the energy of the wine.

Red-fruited and spicy aromas, along with hints of flowers and black tea. The palate was probably the juiciest of the lot, with a very silky feel, and lovely salinity. Drinking it side-by-side with the other burgs, this was more mineral than the Chevillon and MG, but didn’t quite have the intense minerality of the Grivot. Like the 12’ Chevillon, I felt it didn’t quite have the depth nor intensity of the 19’ pair. Wonder if vintage played a big factor in this observation. All said, I found this very elegant and better of the two 12’s. — 3 months ago

2022 vintage. Good concentration, great value. Diam cork, which I personally don't trust, so I'd rather drink this young — 2 months ago

This seemed tighter than the Vaucrains with an underlying elegance that needed some air to reveal dark cherry, raspberry, crushed rock, underbrush, dried herbs, spice & violets — 5 months ago

Good fruit intensity but a bit sunny, leaves out some of the potential nuance — 5 months ago

Perfumy. Dark color. High tannin for a Pinot. Hint of cranberry with mild cherry aftertaste. — 8 months ago

Not part of our little “Vosne-side of NSG” blind shootout, but it might as well have been. Opened earlier during dinner as a blind, I thought it looked very NSG. Why I had it there was mostly down to the elimination process in our blind options. Right on I was, but had it younger.

Very dark fruited on the nose, along with earthy, spicy notes and hints of dark chocolate and moss. The palate was quite pure and elegant, with grippy tannins and an earthy, lightly mineral (which didn’t seem to grow with air) finish. When drank side-by-side with the pair of 19’ NSG during dinner, it didn’t quite have the depth not intensity of the two. It certainly wasn’t as bombastic as the MG, nor had the obvious “goût de terrior” notes of the Grivot, but had a certain elegance I liked. — 3 months ago

Old school burg! Love this vintage. 02 Perrieres is showing beautifully tonight, red fruited, elegant and seductive, descriptors I wouldn’t say I typically associate with NSG. A lengthy slow ox has it wafting from the glass with dried raspberry, brown spices, game bird, forest leaves and a liquid rock minerality. The palate shows impressive power and concentration with melting tannins and a persistent mineral inflicted finish. At peak but should hold through 2029. — 6 months ago
