Clear red color; dark noted aromatics, a hint of gentle oak; on the palate more dark fruit, cinnamon, slightly vanilla, balanced and well integrated oak, still some structure, but drinking nicely with aeration.

Splash decant. Typical NSG nose that opened well over the first 10 minutes. Mostly red fruit right now (sour cherry but maybe some cassis?) and a bit tight. Fairly obvious that this was a hot vintage. Enough structure that I would try this again in 2-3 years.

Red fruits, Cherry cola, spices. Tight Palate- cherries, spices, juicy, bigger tannins, lots of minerals in a bigger body. Young & a little more ripe then then the usual burgundy but still delicious.

Shows the ripeness of the vintage with rich black fruits and chewy tannins on a slightly rustic frame. Excellent purity of fruit, with black cherry and abit of whole cluster stemmy spice. Drinking very well right now.

Wonderfully fresh, herbal, candied raspberry notes.. Lush on the palate, great wine

Easy drinking NSG. Has every element but not complex.

醒酒两个小时,淡宝石红色,闻香有红果,果糖,饼干香气,似乎有点醒过头,入口酸度高,单宁紧致,颗粒细腻,口感和闻香一样,红果,果糖和饼干味,后段辛辣,余味红果气息。酒体有点散,确实醒过头了,喝起来不够集中,缺乏更多变化,略感可惜,这酒状态好的时候应该相当棒。两个小时瓶醒都撑不住,是酒的保存问题吗?

Showing great, inky dark, sleek and youthful. Loads of black fruit balanced by a touch o' French earthy cave-yness.. Lovely
