  pnp, open nose, same as previous bottle, impressed by perfumed floral aromas, fresh fruity core, well integrated well with savoury flavours, mushroom and earth. fine grained tannins. all balanced, just expect more density.

  M- ruby, with light garnet rim. Breathing in glass for 30 mins. Intense red florals, perfumed, dark berries, earth, sweet herbals, some meaty, mushroom savoury, subtle wet earth and barn. Smooth texture, fine grained tannins, solid acidity, M+ bodied. Very well mellowed, just at its peak, super good on balance and complexity! AM 90-92

  Drank this last week, so a few general observations, without much detail. This wine seemed almost dilute and watery upon opening but improved step-by-step over three days to become an object lesson in why well-made red Burgundy from good terroir, in the right hands, is such a distinctive and often great wine. The last glass was perfectly balanced as to flavor elements, as well as texture, including and immensely satisfying density. Drink now with a generous pre-airing (say 24 hours) or hold a few more years for additional, beneficial development.

  This wine is in a good place right now, with a little patience after opening. Out of the bottle the fruit within is encased in a husk of watery-tasting tannins that is off-putting. With an hour or two in the air, delicious and charming cherry fruit takes over, with a hint of cranberry sourness, and palate-cleansing, freshening acidity; mouth-filling but still a bit delicate, and all very nicely balanced. On the finish, a hint of Vosne exotic spice. Really a nice bottle, one of my best 1er Burgundies to date, I would dare to say. Regrets over the two previous opened much too early, anticipation over the one left yet to enjoy.

  Fine, elegant. Medium weight. Muted V-R aromas. Red fruits. Will continue to improve.
