Opened both of these last night, drinking the Goodfellow now.

2010 Patrice Rion Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Fuées

I've found quite a bit of bottle variation with Patrice Rion wines, but when they are on, they are very Chambolle, if a bit unexciting. This bottle was on. The bouquet is quintessentially Chambolle with violets, fresh and dried flowers, black cherry, and a bit of spice. The tannins are fully resolved, acidity medium. The palate shows dark red fruits underpinned by floral and spice notes, definitely on the savory side with the last 15 years under its belt. Finish was a bit short, surfacing some minerality and spice.

2013 Goodfellow Pinot Noir Whistling Ridge Vineyard

Really happy I bought two of the last 4 or 5 cases left last year. This is in a great place right now. It will still improve, but I'd definitely recommend checking in on one if you have any. It was delicious last night and better right now. I find Goodfellow Pinots to be perhaps the most Burgundian in the Willamette Valley, a comparison that Marcus welcomes; this is drinking like a nice Morey-Saint-Denis today. Potpourri, white pepper, some tea, and crunchy red fruits on the nose. Cranberry and perfectly ripe cherries along with garrigue and a hint of animale on the palate, grippy tannins and high acidity provide a real sense of structure. Tannins dry the finish, leaving a lingering, herbaceous reminder of the sip.
