Still a good amount of fruit, some round tannins and the sweetness of a fully mature pinot. After opening somehow less interesting, gained on structure and personality after some minutes in the glass.

Lovely nose, raspberry, underripe strawberry, a lovely cedar note and a touch of leafy tobacco. Similar on palate, there was good concentration but still with a supple mouthfeel. Nice and light on the palate to the extent I was very surpirsed to see this was 14% alchol on the label!
Took a good 2+ hours to begin really opening up and showing its full potential - ideally I'd have opened a bit sooner to enjoy more at the peak, but a very quality wine nonetheless. I ultimately felt that this really showed the Grand Cru status of the vineyard.

Waited 10+ after drinking the first 2007 Clos de Tart I first tried, it is better and can still evolve. This was good but really not great.

And some stems on the nose and some earthiness but still extra ordinary. Just a bit strident on the palate. But only with regards to this field.
