Une bouteille en parfaite condition d’un millésime moyen en Bourgogne. Superbe vin, c’est floral, encore un peu sur le fruit, delicat, mais avec une persistance aromatique!

Drank at 67 From the same bottle as the note below and I agree with his notes. Classic, fully mature with a complexity that makes you wonder how they do it.

A 62.5-ml Coravin pour at 67 Pall Mall in London. Transparent brick color, a bit of sediment. Astonishingly complex nose of barbecue sauce, orange peel, menthol/Vicks VapoRub, Bloody Mary, smoke, and earth. I've come across many of these scents in other wines before, but never on the same glass. Tremendous concentration and density in the mouth for a wine with so little extraction. Old-wine viscosity and length. I would have liked this more 5-10 years ago--the fruit is all gone now, leaving this a bit too cerebral for my palate. But this is still a mesmerizing wine I will never forget.

Pristine bottle that was surprisingly tight. Notch up intensity-wise versus RSV. Very good. (13486/27968)

Dried rose aromatics. Touch of rustic, but not offensively so within strawberry fruit palate. (13487/27968)
