Still a very good, very drinkable Bourgogne Rouge, but fading a bit. Fruit fading, and the oak is now dominant in the flavor profile. Look for this wine in future ripe vintages and pop and pour. If you still have the 2010, drink up.

this was drunk in Dec 2020, way beyond its recommended time but there was no faded fruit and it was still excellent

Good nose still, but fruit fading on the palate. Fruit will not outlast the tannins. Still pleasant to drink. Drink up!

Light to medium bodied. Elegant with red fruit (strawberries, ripe rhubarb). Some structure. Good value and a very nice wine.

Selvfølgelig den beste og siste flasken. Ren mørk frukt. Mye bær og litt krydder. Balansert.
