Fantastic Burg. Smooth, mature but retains fruit and freshness. This is great drinking stuff. Lacking the final complexity perhaps but could drink this ob most days with great pleasure.

Still going strong and still carrying a lot of the primary flavor. On the very dark cherry almost black fruit side. Bit of earthiness. Nice nose. Overall enjoyed but not sure lives up to its grand cru pedigree. Missing that burgundy magic.

Color: ruby with bricking Nose:red fruit, flowers, forest floor Taste: cola, plum, earth, leather This has layers of flavor - much of the fruit is in the background with secondary flavors up front well integrated with tannins lingering for a minute or more. This has time to evolve further. Not sure this wine is my favorite style - a bit more lean and nuanced than I enjoy.

Forest fruits, cherry, some sous bois, hints also of truffle and almost of a soapy foam; a thin but distinguished palate, not all that much fruit, long lived; perhaps a little closed or underdeveloped; good bones but little flesh, yet still pleasing

This was the best bottle of wine I've drunk this year. In a good place.
