Clumsy on the open with some plummy notes. With air show if natural funk which dissipates to more clay, minerals, gravel and ripe cherry fruit. Integrated but lacking some depth.

Served blind I thought this could have been Vosne and Hudelot Noellat did come to mind but I would have possibly have this down for a Beaumont. I always like Hudelot CdV and this was no exception. Lacking a bit of stuffing maybe compared to other more lauded vintages I have had (02, 09 an 10) this was certainly in a good spot.

Mature nose with tobacco notes and black pepper. On the palate surprisingly light and soft for a ´08, but pleasant with dark fruit and a medium long finish. I like it. 91-93P

Blind. Dark, seductive, lovely without being impressive.

Blind. Wonderful sweet and open fruit, earthy and spicy, balanced and easy drinking.
