2006 Guyon Savigny-lès-Beaune Les Peuillets

By on November 30, 2008 #asides

Medium colour. The nose is rather understated, I would even say tight, just faint red fruit with floral hints. Ripe, smooth fruit grows in intensity across your tongue and into the mid-palate. Almost good this.

2006 Guyon Aloxe-Corton Les Guerets

By on November 30, 2008 #asides

Medium colour. The most floral of these. In the mouth this is a more obviously structured but balanced wine of quite a red-fruit complexion. Good length. Frankly too expensive for Aloxe despite its quality.

2006 Guyon Vosne-Romanée Aux Brûlées

By on November 30, 2008 #asides

Medium, medium-plus colour. High tones that are backed by faint caramel and a faintly spicy undertow. Certainly more concentration and dimension – lots of wine here – much complexity and very good length. This is super, only the price spoils the party.

2006 Guyon Vosne-Romanée En Orveaux

By on November 30, 2008 #asides

Medium colour. More open and spicy than the Brùlées with more caramel over slightly blurred red fruits. More punch and mid-palate concentration. Super balance and length – what’s not to love

2005 Guyon Nuits St.Georges Les Herbues

A wide nose – this time with some complexity to add to the barrel aromas. In the mouth there’s plenty of furry tannin, and like the nose you find an extra dimension – better length too. Very nice.

The nose is very tight – little spice-rack but little else. Very concentrated and lovely on the tongue, packed with buffered grainy tannin. Clearly not for the faint of heart.
