Friday, March 2, 2012 - The nose is wonderful, and exotic - gentle cocoa and sweet cherry which deepens with hints of mint, damson, and the oak over time. Palate is not quite right for the first couple of hours. Slightly out of balance - too bitter and strangely lacking in concentration for such a hot vintage. But no doubt this is wonderfully made and, like others, I love the Burgundian elegance and the velvet silkiness. 92+
