Domaine De L'ancienne Cure
Domaine Pernot-Bélicard
Perrières Meursault 1er Cru Chardonnay 2018
A moderately expressive nose with white orchard fruit, some floral scents, bee wax and a touch of mint. The palate is amazing, complete, so well balanced, fine, elegant, classy and yet round and rich with just good backbone to go woth that width and that fullness, a very long delicious finish but mostly what impressed me the most is that texture, so envelopping, classy and perfect. I note generally on the low side and don’t give 94 too often but this is definitely the case.
Un nez moyennement expressif avec des notes de fruits blancs, de menthe, un petit côté floral et cure d’abeille. La bouche est magnifique, un équilibre exemplaire entre cette tension contenue, cette rondeur et richesse enveloppante sans être lourde, un vin plein, fin et riche à la fois, mais c’est surtout cette texture qui m’a séduite et m’a impressionné, quelle classe, une très longue finale savoureuse vient couronner le tout. Je note assez bas généralement mais 93 ou 94 sans doute.

Navarro Vineyards
Methode Á L'Ancienne Anderson Valley Pinot Noir
This is a new Pinot Noir for me and will become a go to. It is fruit forward (just how I like it), with a little mint and herbs. Better after some time to aerate. — 5 years ago

Michel Rebourgeon
Clos de la Cure Pommard Pinot Noir 2018
Nose is tight out of the gates. Some cherry cola, dustiness. Pulverized rock dust. Really quiet at the moment but I have faith. 18’s are built like brick houses. More aromas coming but all mineral. Fruit is buried here. Palate is super closed. Wow. This will need mega air. Like mega air. Huge grippy tannins and terrific fruit on the long finish. Easily a 1er Cru length finish. But this needs mega air. My score will rise. As this air the fruit expands on the palate. Massive power, depth and concentration. Exceptional length. Nose picks up a hint of licorice. 9.2 to 9.3 after 20 minutes. — 4 years ago
