Labet Pierre

2008 Labet Pierre Beaune Marconnets

By billn on June 30, 2010

Blanc. Medium yellow. Hints of cream support ripe yellow fruit. The flavours are ripe too with a nice edge of acidity and of-course it’s longer finishing than the Bourgogne. Not too fat this Beaune – it’s well balanced.

2008 Labet Pierre Savigny-lès-Beaune Les Vergelesses

Blanc. François’ ‘baby Charlie’ – 300 metres from ‘vrai Charlemagne’. The aromatics are denser here. This wine is fuller than the Tillets but sizzles along on very good acidity – lots of dry extract here. I like this – lots to recommend here.

2008 Labet Pierre Beaune Coucherias

By billn on June 30, 2010

From a steep section of vines planted in 1964 that form the basis of the domaine’s massale selection program. Deep aromas that offer very impressive dark, precise fruits. Lots of width in the mouth, the tannin is quite blocky which helps the flavour grab hold of your palate. Overall I’d still wait a year to let this settle a bit, but the aromas are super!
