  Better than the previous bottle. Very pale rim but less signs of age. Muted nose with tart bing cherries. Chalky red cherries and underripe strawberries in the mouth. Acidity.
  None of the off-putting flavors of the last bottle, but still a so-so wine. Doubt that the fruit will survive the acidity. Best now with food.

  As noted by others, a pale red center, pale rim with signs of age.
  Muted nose, tart bing cherries, a little complexity, but overall weak.
  Odd taste up-front (mossy stones, iron and caramel?), some light red fruits, good acidity, a little green on the finish.
  Not in a good place now. If I were to be optimistic I'd hope that this is a closed right now and may blossom in a couple of years (the acidity is there for more age). However, the fruit seems too reticent. Will hold to see what happens, but not hopeful.

  Not impressive. A bit brownish at the edges of an overall pale burgundy. Light and enjoyable overall but not what I would expect for a premier cru.

  Wonderful floral aromas. red fruits and dried red fruits, moderate structure, very approachable. Good length on the finish. Pop and pour.
