Sep 30th, 2023Stunning nose. Deep, dark cherry, milk chocolate, soppy and vivid, and so deep the fruit. Tree sap, bark, mulch. What a nose. Engaging sweet fruit. So fresh and acidic. Rich and haunting. So so spot on.

Sep 16th, 202317 is the recent vintage to drink now. What a wine. Firing on 85% of its cylinders. Stunning nose of white chocolate infused mid season cherries, gorgeous wet earth that is so clear and the classic Burgundian sous bous. Mashed red flowers. Dirt. Smells like a scene in nature nose. Superb palate. Energetic but also hedonistic with a lovely juxtaposition of mid season sour cherry fruit and gorgeous freshness and length. Really really long. Excellent nimbleness and so so pure. Exceptional. Tannins big and fine. Will track over the next few hours. Needs them.

My first taste of Buffet since January! Right before the end of the year! Gorgeous nose. Mushroom, mint, Sous bois, mineral, very rocky, ripe but measured red cherries. Bright and deeply penetrating nose. Palate is elegant and loaded with lacey ripe and juicy tannins. Sweet fruit and so elegant. Wonderful Champans. Palate staining and sappy finish. So pure. Hit of licorice and darker fruits on the finish. So long. Juicy and so so delicate. Can be drunk young but also has structure to age for 15+ years. What a finish. As this aerates it gets more concentrated and gains depth. Stunning tiny berry sweet fruited intensity.
