  almost no saturation at all through the cork. At pop n pour, mellow and delicate, light earthiness, medium minus tannin. 2 hours of air and the tannin firms up, still medium minus. A little more fruit there. More complexity starting to show.

  really not likable... very angular (and I am a big fan of acid/lift), didn't feel like there was any fruit coming through, all secondary flavors (and not good flavors) and a bit harsh... could it be fully shut down... I don't think so... will try to let ten years pass before going for the last bottle, but not sure that is going to help... saw the notes on two flawed btls, didn't feel flawed to me per se, but then again I am not super sensitive to taint elements

  Bottle from Premier Cru. Opened 3 bottles from the same source and all were afflicted with the same weird combo of reduction and VA and maybe even a little cooked.

  Nice perfume of red berries and a bit of spice-some peppery and fine oak notes too. Good red fruits in the mouth, moderate depth, a little grainy in texture and decent length. Ready now with no rustic edges, this is a no brainer to enjoy now, but not as complex as Chevillon's best in the range. While Burgundy is typically autumn or winter wines, this is a good candidate to enjoy on a roasted chicken on a summer day, a total no brainer and no drama friend.
