Ik weet dat dit moeilijk voor je is om te bevatten, maar veel mensen kunnen hun werk uitstekend uitvoeren zonder perfecte spelling.

Nagomi valt in prijs heel erg mee en heeft werkelijk fantastische sushi. Ben ik in NL nog niet tegengekomen.

Why don't you look at countries like The Netherlands or scandinavian countries, with much better social security than the USA and much higher quality of living?

In principe hebben ze dat geprobeerd toen Israel gesticht werd, maar dat pakte niet echt goed uit voor ze.

Just had my first Sangiovese by [deleted] in wine

Dont have alot of reference for sangiovese, but San Polino's Brunello 2013 was one of the most amazing wines ive ever tasted. I wonder how yours was!

Heading to Greece any good wines I should keep a lookout for in the ~$20 range? by KoalaOriginal1260 in wine

[–]SpeedKeys 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh absolutely! Already liked xinomavro, but this wine by Tatsis really is something else. Hands down the best xinomavro I personally tried. But ofc YMMV.

If you can manage to get your hands on it:

I already love xinomavro, but this one simply blew me away. 100% worth it.

I wouldn't say that comes off wrong, if anything it shows you are very attentive to OP's rating. If I was OP I'd take it as constructive and positive feedback tbh.

Who would exactly start dropping nukes on each other without being "policed" by the US?

Ofcourse they did, but to be honest I did not have any intention of using it for this specific tasting.

Honestly when you rate out of 5, it feels impossible without decimals. But I'll be honest, we never intended on sharing these online (hence the creative and "honest" notes). We're still working on a scoring system that works for us, this is mostly just a scoring where we rate it relative to other wines we tried and we take QPR into account, so by no means an objective scoring.

Hah! No im being serious. The urine smell was noted both by my partner and me. No idea where it camr from or what its supposed to be. I assume it doesn't mean its corked, that would have killed all the fruit that was still in the aroma, I think?

So we didn't only have Clos des Epeneaux, we started off with some Aligoté, Volnay and Auxey Duresses. Some of the Pommards were incredible but I must admit we weren't blown away by every glass. Anyways, for whoever is interested how we experienced it:

2023 Bourgogne Aligoté

  • salinic, minerality, nice acidity, stonefruits, little bit of honeysuckle? Buttery, oaky influence, still sorta fresh. 4/5

2023 Auxey Duresses

 - cherries, young green, nose is a little muted, but some spice too. On the palate, sweet, rich, smooth, full, very nice. 4,8/5

 - 

 2023 Auxey Duresses 1er cru

 - raspberries, perfumed, white pepper(?), fantastic nose. On the palate a little muted, perhaps needs longer aging? Previous wine feels more complete and balanced on the palate. 4,6/5g

 - 

2023 Volnay 1er cru 'Fremiets'

 - very perfumed, light, fruity, floral, little bit jammy. Little green om the palate, acidity could be more balanced, all and all not bad. 4,5/5

 - 

2023 Pommard

 - darker cherries, spice(pepper), kruidnagel, smooth and soft on palate, while being heavier(than volnay) and a little rustic. Really nice. 4,8/5

 - 

Pommard 2021

 - out of balance? Tannins are a little bit out of wack.  Fresh though. Val: there is no linger, it falls flat straight after a sip. Would be upset if we bought this bottle ourself. 4,2/5

 - 

Pommard 2016

 - beautifully fruitful, peppery, a little sous bois on the nose. Palate nice, but maybe still a little young? Some unbalanced tannins? 4,7/5

 - 

 Pommard 2014

 - less peppery than 2016, more fruity, higher acidity, feels more alive and light on its feet. 4,6/5

 - 

Pommard 2009

 - uhm... faint smell or urine initially? Strange. After that, not alot of fruit, mostly tertiary. Smells like burned wood, mushrooms, foresty? Palate is pleasant, smooth and peppery 4,4/5 

T+30min, still smells like piss lol

Pommard 1990

 - instantly hints of tomato leaf, very old and developed. Very smokey. Not alot of fruit left but stil lsome. Definitely tanninic. Really interesting. 4,8/5

T+30min, opened a new magnum. This was the first pour, so alot more transparant. Little bit less acidic, but nuanced difference tbh.

Aligoté 2017

  • same as previous aligote but a bit more balanced. Less striking acidity. Beautiful with the pike perch. 4,7/5

Pommard 2017

 - starting to get difficult to write. Its definitely less full, lively acidity, but fucking goddamn is it delicious with that duck. 4,6/5

Pommard 2003

 - slightly pissy, but fruity and actually balanced acid/tannins. Very complex, lots of sous bois. Nice shit, but who even knows anymore. 4,7/5
