Liked it but didn’t love it. Wife liked it. Nose showed Burgundian smells but flavors still had a lot of sweet fruit. Day 2 was better where acidity came out and nose evolved. Bad bottle? Needs more time?

Quite dominant acidic and mature notes with some harshness. Nevertheless the very good quality of earlier bottles of this wine was noticeable with some good fruit and very good sous-bois. Although this wine had passed its top, still really agreeable. Drink up. 88-89.

Color: (medium-)light ruby with an light orange rim. Taste: dominated by very nice mature notes and - compared to last tim I’ve drunk this wine, one month ago - with more prominent acidity and less fruit. Although the quality of this wine now seems rather quickly deminishing, it still was nice to drink. 88.

Nose: soft sous bois. Taste: the fruit of this wine is slowly developing in a hint of raspberry and replaced by soft, refined sous-bois, resulting in a refined, very feminine wine. A very good match with the soft taste of fried chicken. 89.

A bit more mature notes and a bit less fruit than last time in may 2017. Still a delicious Burgundy. I intend to drink my remaining bottles within half a year, because I guess, that keeping them longer probably will affect the quality to much. 88-89.

Nose: raspberry with parsley. Taste: raspberry and red berry, herbs and a chocolaty note. More mature than last time. Really enjoyable with food. On its own a bit thin but still really nice. At the second day the very nice fruit (raspberry, red berry and cherry) was prominent. Delicious. Might well be at its top now. 89.

Color: light(-medium) ruby. Nose: refined underbrush and spices. Taste: red fruit, also with very refined underbrush and spices. Not very fruity, quite thin and with a prominent and sometimes dominant acidity. At the second day nicely integrated, with nice fruit and the acidity tasting like lemon. Although this is recognizable as a wine from a lesser vintage, it was really classy. 89.

New burgundy in my cellar - ruby color, intense for a burgundy - beautiful legs - nose fruity with berries and hints of exotic fruits - flavor very balanced - wild cherries and hints of papaya - very smooth on the palate - long finish - chapeau

The nose showed tart berry, pepper, florals, smoke, dark soil and mineral tones. On the palate, it was lean yet lifted with juicy acidity and pure red berry fruits. It finished fresh on tart berries and a hint of citrus.
