Absolutely lovely aromatics of spiced-raspberries, clove, light toast and crystalline minerals. Lovely transparency to the high-toned red fruit that is loaded with berries, cherries and fruit extract. Earth-toned spices complement the juicy mid-palate. Definitely easy to draw comparisons to premier cru stuff from Arlot or Dujac both in terms of style and even quality. Still drinking at the top of its game and showed nothing but youthfulness indicating this wine likely will be fine for years to come.

Wineflock - 1er Red Burgundy 1988-1998 (Bob Gaynor's): Full red color. MEdium forward nose of candied black fruit. Big black spicy fruit with some heat - definitely stood out in this group as new world and alcoholic.

Beautiful color, pristine, deep ripe cherry, woodsy, heavy on the palate and great finish with grilled King Ora Salmon.

Forest floor and dark cherry fruit. Drinking beautifully.
