A couple of Burgundies
Harmand-Geoffroy Mazi-Chambertin 2001 A nose showing a little too much brett than acceptable on Bourgogne. The brett has made the fruit one dimension. The palate shows a little of the glass of grand cru wine – there’s a warm and sweet core to it which grand cru wine seems to have. But its fleeting. The palate structure is acceptable but not impressive either. A disappointing wine from a producer, it seems, which is struggling to make good wine with the superb holdings they have.
Forey Morey-Saint-Denis 2005 Not everything in 2005 is gold. I’ve never had a good wine from this negociant. This wine was acceptable but showed none of the character of 2005. It was light and frankly boring.
