  October 12, 2022 - Nose: red fruits, rose petals, spices
  Notes: Tasted from a 95/96 Mongeard Mugneret dinner featuring Echezeaux VV, Grands Echezeaux and Les Suchots from the respective vintages. Was my second favorite of the night. The 95 GE had a big structure and probably a fuller body than the rest of the other wines. With a classical GE nose I do feel that the palate could do a little better. Perhaps the EVV 96, the wine of the night was performing so well that it simply overshadowed everything else. I can imagine if there were no comparison I would've given perhaps a slightly higher score for the GE 95. Given the relatively stronger body I do feel this wine will age for a little longer and probably still has more than a decade of drinking window ahead of it.

  September 4, 2022 - probably time to drink up. Fine but nothing amazing. Good fruit and mineral. Stewed strawberries.

  March 19, 2022 - Classic 95 Burg. Lite amber on rim with clear garnet color. After 2 hours the nose fully registered with dark cherry and blackberry, some dark chocolate. Palate should more of the same with Vosne spice and ending with hints of violet and some French oak on a moderate plus finish.

  February 18, 2020 - Dark red in color. Wonderful nose shows lifted Vosne spice, sandalwood, dark candied cherry, hint of graphite and smoke. Large scaled in the mouth showing sweet dark macerated cherries, cocoa, no tannins, medium acidity, toasty oak still present and perfumed finish. If not for the toasty oak the wine would have merited a higher score.
