Domaine Drouhin-Laroze

Bonnes Mares Grand Cru Pinot Noir 2012

2012 vintage. Opened and decanted. Tasted 45 mins after decanting. Medium-heavy body with tremendous power. Nose not giving up much at that point other than nebulous, dark fruits. Flavors of spearmint, watercress, rhubarb and ash. Needed at least another hour of lounge time in the decanter to unfurl those wings somewhat but three hours woulda been better. Two bottles left so will opt for a 6 hr decant next viz if possible. 12.25.24. — 9 days ago

Domaine Denis Mortet

Mes Cinq Terroirs Gevrey-Chambertin Pinot Noir 2019

A producer & wine I purchase every year as it always hits the spot for Burgundy lovers with its red & black cherry, berry fruit, spice, crushed rock mineral & violet. The 19 is youthful but approachable with its generous fruit & spice. — a month ago

Bourgogne Aligoté 2020

I struggled with this one blind, bright and lemony but round and a little nutty in the middle, an excellent Aligote but I’m more used to the more natty De Moor style. — 15 days ago
