Community Tasting Note

Monday, December 3, 2018 - Figured I was really rolling the dice on this one at $130 but HOLY S#*!, was this good! Clearly aged, orangish, translucent dusky lavender color with clear rim; knockout nose of sous bois, truffles and onion compote; remarkable power to it still; perfect structure that not only holds it together, it carries it on seemingly forever with gorgeous red fruit, camp fire smoke, nicely soil inflected, very autumnal, celery seed. Great complexity and perfect balance. This just screams with everything that's great about aged burgundy! Amazing that some of my best finds have been "mere" village wines from decent vintages. If I had to be trapped somewhere with just one choice of wine, this would be it!!! (Probably my best wine of 2018 anyway) Still going the next day after laying some argon over the glass or so that was left in the bottle.
