April 22, 2024 - Perfect cork! Fully matured and perfect condition. Quite shy upon opening and started to open up after 1 hour in the glasses. This wine is about harmony and finness rather than power and structure. Pale ruby colour, still good acidity with taste of sour cherry and strawberry. There is no reason to wait any longer as I believe this wine will start to fall apart soon.

April 19, 2010 - Tighter than I remember it. Medium to full bodied, this was a nice contrast to the '95 Dujac Morey villages. Massive structure here with big drying tannins and aggressive acidity upfront. Very good depth and fruit underneath. Needs 3-5 years, but the material is excellent.

April 16, 2010 - Nez un peu oxydé, réglissé. Très belle texture et finesse en bouche.
Un vin féminin mais ample, qui a de la profondeur, malheureusement au niveau aromatique on a un coté réglissé, un peu cuit, signes d'une bouteille qui a eu chaud.
Elle offre du plaisir (88-89 pts) mais laisse surtout entrevoir qu'une bouteille parfaite serait magnifique. -

May 27, 2009 - Brilliant ruby color. Incredible clarity and translucency. The nose is shy, but there are lots of baked red fruits, spiced up with a bit of mint. Fresh bright red fruits on the palate - strawberries and sour cherries predominantly - but the freshness is stunning. The mid-palate is very lively and the finish is moderate + in length. Wine was a tad disjointed upon opening, but after breathing for a couple of hours it integrated very well and gained more finesse. Very elegant and classy. This appears to be just entering its drinking window, but there is no rush as this will last quite a while.
