Pommard Pezerolles 1998, Hubert de Montille
Transparent og moden, litt grønn og undermoden, servert litt på den kalde siden og flere mente dette var en nebbe. Syrerik, frisk og elegant. Rustikk og ganske typisk Pommard og for små tanniner for en nebbiolo. Alle endte opp i burgund til slutt. 90 poeng
Fra demontille.com:
"Les Pézerolles", at the northern end of the appellation, borrows from Beaune its delicate bouquet and structure. It is the most refined Pommard as it typically makes feminine wines akin to Volnay, located paradoxically on the other side of the village. Our parcel sits in the heart of the cru, the best part of which was formerly part of "Le Clos de Pézerolles".
The name comes from the old French "Poizerolles", which around the 12th century meant "chickpeas". It is likely this legume was cultivated next to vines.
If "Les Rugiens" is the Grand Cru of Pommard, "Les Grands Épenots" is the archetype of the appellation and "Les Pézerolles" is an outsider. It can be difficult to identify this Pommard in blind tastings because it is atypical. Its floral, perfumed and yet subtle aromas mix with small red and black fruits which are framed by a rather light, svelte and feminine structure accompanied by a simultaneously generous yet tense texture.
Domaine de Montille is known to craft wines with great aromatic purity, always favoring balance and elegance over power and extraction. The wines are classic expressions of Burgundy, produced in the most natural way possible and possessing an impressive ability to age, as the family believes only time can reveal the true potential of the greatest wines. The domaine's current style remains faithful to Hubert's natural and idealistic approach, which demanded considerable patience while waiting for appropriate drinking windows for certain vintages. Etienne, however, has taken up the task to bring greater aromatic expression and silkier and more unctuous textures to the reds, allowing them to drink earlier, without compromising their ability to age. The domaine is known in Burgundy, among others such as Arlot, DRC, Dujac and Leroy, to regularly vinify using a significant proportion of whole clusters, varying by cuvée and by vintage.
The Domaine has practiced organic viticulture since 1995. Today, our wines are certified by Ecocert. Additionally, since 2005, biodynamic practices have been implemented to show our full respect for these living soils.
La Grande Rue 2002, Domaine Lamarche
Transparent, men mørkere enn forrige vin. Betydelig mer elegant og flere var på Giacosa (!?) Stram, frisk med lyse jordbær. Noe soya, slepne pene tanniner og sursøte bær. Overraskende ung i uttrykket for en 02 og en av de beste vinene drukket fra denne produsenten. 94 poeng
Chambolle Musigny Les Sentièrs 2015, Philippe Pacalet
Transparent kjølig ung frukt. Strammer seg i munnen og igjen var vi i nebbland ! Roer seg i glasset via US Pinot landet vi på en rød burgunder. Ikke så naturvin som produsenten er kjent for. Og vinen er ren og balanserer OK. Selv om han ikke bruker noe svovel i sine viner. Men ingen stor Chambolle. 88 poeng
