2007 Dublère Savigny-lès-Beaune Les Peuillets Blanc

By billn on April 09, 2012

Medium lemon-yellow. Wide, inviting, clean citrus fruit and flower notes. After the M&M 06 Puligny, this is much more mineral and lithe – as much the vintage as the vines. Lovely acidity is smoothly rendered and underpinning the intensity and leaving a mouth-watering finish. Excellent

I still have a few bottles of this and it has been unremittingly lovely at home. The nose offers of a wide perspective of relatively complex but perhaps a slightly diffuse interest. In the mouth this is the lovely middleweight I recall; wide, subtle and complex – just a very pretty glass of wine.

There are aromatic similarities between this and the 2007 – wide, interesting yet perhaps just a little diffuse – the fruit just needs a little polish to bring it completely into focus. In the mouth this is a little less like the 07 – clearly there’s another level of intensity, the flavour just grows and grows. Different in character but with similar interest.

Today there is more obvious barrel note on the nose, some herbal complexity too – I find more clarity though than for 07 and 08. Apparently not the same level of intensity delivered by the 08, but there is an understated complexity and a very impressive finish indeed.

2008 Dublère Volnay Taillepieds

A new wine in 2008. Deeper, denser dark red fruits rounded with some higher tones. There is lovely width and depth here and a good expansion in the mid-palate.

2008 Dublère Morey St.Denis Les Blanchards

By billn on June 30, 2010

Medium colour. This is a little spicier, it’s the only real hint to the change of Côte. Very round, silky and slightly plush – super balance. Good width, I think this should be a brilliant value choice.

2008 Dublère Charmes-Chambertin

By billn on June 30, 2010

It needs some swirling to lift a little reduction. Dense fruit, but much tighter than the preceding Morey. Instantly this is from a different category; it starts narrow but widens, showing a super cream-framed depth. Long, mouth-watering and very, very successful.

2008 Dublère Bourgogne Blanc

By billn on June 30, 2010

Cuvée Millerandes. Fresh with a super-intense core of fruit. Plenty of acidity but it has the foil of a rippling width of flavour. Stony fruit in the mid-palate. One critic ordered 6 cases after tasting this – I ordered a more modest one, which was clearly a mistake as they lasted only 2 months – then the domaine was sold out! One of the bourgognes of the vintage.

2008 Dublère Chassagne-Montrachet Les Chaumées

By billn on June 30, 2010

Dense, wide Chassagne fruit aromas. Mouth-filling, again (like the others) there is a good width. This is both classic and very good Chassagne.
