2006 Seguin Manuel Beaune Cent Vignes

By on June 30, 2008 #asides

A cuvée made since 2005 from 40 year-old vines. Aromatically wide with delicate red fruits. Ripe and sweet

yet retaining super acidity. Another nice burst of interest before the finish – lovely fruit.

2006 Seguin Manuel Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes

By on June 30, 2008 #asides

From 3 small plots that abutt 1er crus. The nose is deeper with darker, musky fruit. Lithe with good acid

balance – the tannins are more forward but are nicely ripe. Good wine that leaves you with a smooth coating

on your teeth.

2006 Seguin Manuel Clos de Vougeot

By on June 30, 2008 #asides

Towards the bottom of the clos so plenty of clay in the soil. A more forward nose whose aromas go deeper

still than the Gevrey. Velvet texture and mouthfilling. Lots of tannin, chocolate flavours and a long

diminuendo of a finish. Not quite austere, but close. Very good.

2006 Seguin Manuel Corton

By on June 30, 2008 #asides

From Les Combes which is near Vigne au Saint. The nose starts slightly reduced but swirling brings

ever-fresher notes. Mouthfilling, with plenty of slightly grainy tannin. The fruit is pure and flows on

through the finish. Good balance here

2006 Seguin Manuel Bourgogne Chardonnay

By on June 30, 2008 #asides

Only grapes from the Côte de Beaune, a mix of Hautes Côtes and from the village of Meursault. A forward and

fresh nose of faint brioche and attractive fruit. The palate is fresh and smooth and has a nice extra push

of flavour in the mid-palate. A very good generic.

2006 Seguin Manuel Savigny-lès-Beaune Les Goudelettes

A high-toned, quite floral nose. It’s ripe though the acidity balances it quite well. There is more power in

the finish and a good length too.

2006 Seguin Manuel Meursault Vieilles Vignes

By on June 30, 2008 #asides

From a single vineyard near the Clos du Cromin whose vines are 30 years old. The nose is almost tripping out

of the glass to meet you. In the mouth it’s a little more understated and shows a subtle but impressive

length.

2006 Seguin Manuel Puligny-Montrachet Vieilles Vignes

By on June 30, 2008 #asides

Sourced from the area of Levrons. A forward and quite dense nose. Silky and showing a clear extra

dimension to the lovely fruit. Excellent length too – this is super.
