2012 Pierre Gonon Saint Joseph — 3 days ago
Love this wine. Great minerality and tension. Easy to drink, great acidity and length — 3 days ago
De halve fles Château Les Forts de Latour 2014 toont een diepe robijnrode kleur en biedt een complexe neus van zwarte bessen, cederhout en een vleugje truffel.
In de mond is hij zijdezacht, met rijpe tannines en een prachtige balans tussen kracht en elegantie.
Ik proef iets van zwarte kersen, grafiet en kruiden die leiden naar een lange, verfijnde afdronk. Een klassieke Pauillac met veel diepgang en potentieel voor verdere rijping. — 14 days ago
The 22 Burgundies are as good as advertised. Maybe, better.
Time in the bottle will tame the lemon in this bottle. It needs it.
Green & golden apple, Meyer lemon to chiffon, lime pulp, overripe pineapple juice, white stone fruits, tropical melons, cream, saline, sea fossils, chalky pulp, limestone pulp, light caramel notes, honeycomb, cream, spring flowers, excellent viscosity & round acidity, elegance, round lush balanced finish that lasts a full minute. Even better in 3-5 years. One of the best Bourgogne’s I’ve had to date.
Merry Christmas! 🎅🎄🎁 ❄️ ⛄️ — 4 days ago

Every time I have a wine from Pierre Gonon, I know it’s going to hit every note I’m looking for. These wines are absolutely delicious and are exactly what I love to drink.
First time with a slightly older bottle of Iles Feray and I’d say this is in the perfect zone. Very much in the vein of the StJo with the dark florals and herbal aromatics (just stemmy enough to show it’s there, but not as much as the StJo). Peppered raspberries and blackberries, green stems on the mid-palate. Great texture/weight. Granite and iron show early on. Tannin structure is in the middle ground…holds everything together but isn’t a beast. Not as layered as the StJo, but still so enjoyable to drink when wanting a beautiful, pure expression of Syrah.
Followed over a few days and stayed consistent. I’d buy a bunch of this if prices for these wines weren’t as high as they’ve been the last few years. — 13 days ago
