11/8/2014 - agavin Likes this wine: 91 pointsI've opened 3 bottles so far. 1 was absolutely fabulous, with reduction still on the nose at the start, and a fabulous minerality with all the chevy goodness. 1 was premoxed so bad it was unpleasant, and the third was middling premoxed (advanced): still quite enjoyable, but more like a 20+ year old Chevy. The color was different all three times, in proportion to the oxidation. So, sadly, like many wines from this period, there seems to be a dangerously bad premox problem. Quite annoying given the pedigree (and the price). |

4/5/2014 - agavin Likes this wine: 90 pointsVery pale straw color, faint hint of green. Sweet citrus nose. Maybe some white flowers. Lots and lots of crisp acid with a slight stoney bitterness of the medium long finish. Drank with homemade pesto Genovese. At its best with the food. |

5/26/2013 - agavin Likes this wine: 95 pointsThis is my style of Burgundy to a T and is in a perfect state of maturity. Just heading into brick, with a truckload of fruit and bright soft tanins. Nice berry-like finish and all sorts of meaty secondary notes. Just a stone's throw away from Romanée-Conti and you can tell. |
