Vieilles Vignes Côte de Nuits Villages Pinot Noir 2022

Popped this about 20 minutes ago. Nose is already revving up. Showing earthy cherry cola scents, and a wee bit of toasted autumn spice (or maybe that latter thing is me sitting in the deck on this nice November evening surrounded by fallen leaves). Deep ripe, earthy fruit hits the palate immediately, and then the tannins take over. I know this is too young but I wanted to get a sense of its starting position. Palate clenches a bit after the first whack of fruit and a little astringent on the finish, but I think a couple of years rest will settle it down. Pretty solid 9.0 at present with potential to go a bit higher in a few years. — 6 days ago

Les Suchots Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2009

I said in my last note in December 2020 have the last one in about 12 months. A cherry perfumed nose together with Sous Bois - a pleasant nose. A light to medium weight sweetish palate of no great complexity. A little disappointing for a 2009 Les Suchots. Not up to it for a $240 wine. — 4 years ago

@Dawn E. Hello Dawn. Just seeing this request from a while ago re the 2020 Tolpuddle Chardonnay. Huon Hooke who is a noted Australian wine scribe gave this wine a very high 97 points and a window of 2021 to 2032. Patience is a virtue 😎😉

Rich dark red fruit and tannic structure - a nice drink now but the wine will approve with age. — 9 days ago
