wow, given this was '97 i didn't have high hopes but i loved this wine... soooo good... i read Englishman's Claret note and it said it all... lovely and elegant but with solid material and great acid, red fruited for sure

Loved it; the classic array of Vosne notes - red fruits, 5-spice, chocolate, sous bois mixed with a little green. Harmonious, almost weightless. No doubt this would have been better 5 years ago but given the vintage, this has aged surprisingly well. Went beautifully with the rack of lamb at Easter.

This was the best of the four bottles I have drunk over the past eight years. Cloudy rose color. Cloudberry, red cherry and candy apple aromas. Medium-bodied fruit in the mouth with some complexity and good structure and depth. A little muddled on the palate with a little drying out of the fruit on the finish. Drink up.

my last note applies, though this bottle was a more aged and not as quite as good
