Moillard-Grivot

2006 Moillard-Grivot Savigny-lès-Beaune Blanc

Wide and high-toned, perhaps a little diffuse, but not bad. Plenty of punch and freshness. The fruit has a slightly baked aspect but it’s fresh enough – the finish is decently long too.

Medium-plus cherry-red. The nose really does have some nice fruit trying to get out, but something high-toned and rather saccharin seems to be getting in the way. Mouth-filling though a little spritzy. There’s plenty of dimension but this is a very raggedy and rustic wine. Not recommended.

Pale gold. Very nutty – in fact almost too nutty. There’s also a faint oxidative note. The palate shows some fat and good acidity too, but there’s a little of oxidative impression here too. If it’s just the style than I’m not a fan!

Medium, medium-plus ruby red – still a shade of cherry at the rim. The nose is diffuse red fruit – but nothing to put a name to. Good concentration in the mouth with furry tannins and licorice black fruit. The palate is much more interesting than the nose.

Pale colour. This shows a heavy, almost reduced nose, perhaps a little vegetal too – over 45 minutes it didn’t improve. The palate, however, is quite fat and very Meursault. Good length too. Shame about the nose.

Still a young colour, medium shade. Nose is of high toned raspberry and redcurrants. Good fruit concentration – again redcurrant is dominant. The acidity is a little harsh coupled with grainy tannins – traditional, slightly rustic Pommard. Almost good.
