3rd of 6, pnp, perfect cork and level, little changed from attractive last bottle noted in May 24, upside, 12+ years. F+ (18).

2006 vintage

Un grand vin, tout est là, une race, de la profondeur mais aucune lourdeur, tout en finesse. Parfaite maturité, on est en ce moment au pic de maturité.

2010 vintage

2nd of 6, pnp, perfect cork and level, seems more concentrated with greater drive to fruit than first bottle in April 22, beginning of peak drinking with upside and more nuance to come, 15+ years. F+ (18).......Poissenot currently showing more complexity if less to it than Charmes which shows proper GC weight of material.

2006 vintage

A fairly mature garnet/brown colour; the fruit is cherry and redcurrant, but as the wine is now quite mature it has taken on a more vegetal character. The palate is quite firm, and it has reasonable length. Will keep for a while yet, but I don’t see it improving.

2006 vintage

1st of 6, pnp, perfect cork and level - darkish, mat ruby, little development; black cherry and plum, hint of spice and game, meat; med/full, ok length and persistence, nice balance, not particularly concentrated, more heft than expected, nearly there but upside yet, 10+ years. Just F+ (18).....half decanted and drunk on second night showed a little more nuance.....I've always found Geantet's Charmes reliable and continues to improve much longer than initially expected!

2006 vintage

This is intense, dark-fruited and succulent, with mature, gamey notes and good length. A fine Burgundy, now at its peak.

2006 vintage

drunk over 2 days. the nose is dominated by a fresh crushed red berries tone, very young and enjoyable. The message is however quite simplistic, lack of complexity. the palate is ok, good balance and freshness, but nothing exciting. overall, a good wine (and thus the 90) but in my view, considering the terroir, it comes short. second day was similar

2006 vintage

This is now a very attractive Burgundy, full, rich, with elegant fruit and savoury notes, and good length. One of the better 2006s.

2006 vintage

Quite a deep colour; rich, full, savoury and long on the palate, with quite dense strawberry/raspberry fruit and secondary notes. A true grand cru. Excellent on this occasion.

2006 vintage

Medium red colour; fresh raspberry and redcurrant fruit; approaching mid-maturity, with soft, elegant fruit, medium to full weight and good length.

2006 vintage

Good fruit. Not too much impacted by the hot vintage. In absolute terms, lacks some graciousness. But then this is gevrey ... not chambolle.

2006 vintage

Drunk in two parts, three days apart, and stored under vacuum between those days. Day 1: a fairly deep colour; a mixture of dark fruits, a hint of menthol and some savoury notes. Quite concentrated. Approachable, but should keep well. Perhaps 91/100. Day 2: This has developed noticeably since the previous occasion and now has concentrated, spicy, savoury, meaty flavours. Good length. Excellent wine and an extra mark.

2006 vintage

Beautiful poise, great red berry fruit, drinking very well.

2010 vintage

Joyaux en Côte de Nuits (Marsannay/Gevrey-Chambertin) - Les Grands Jours de Bourgogne (Maison de Marsannay) : Tasting. Also dense and slightly backward with a very traditional Gevrey animale character. Palate also dense, black and masculine with lots of power. Will need plenty of time.

2010 vintage

This is very nice indeed but not much of a step up from the 1er Cru wines. 92-94.

2010 vintage

Delicious round red cherry core with black fruits, leather and forest floor supporting. Power and balance. Delicious.
