Rich, powerful flavors of ripe sweet red and black cherries, quite ripe indeed, with a hint of savory meatiness and earth. Lots of fruit, plenty of concentration fine tannins, a hint of dry 98 grippiness in the midpalate. Merely ok length. Delicious but lacking the complexity and persistence to reach the highest levels.

Much more Burgundian now. Bottom line - tastes like Bonnes Mares. Could be longer, could be more complex, but ultimately tastes like what it is, which is a very good thing. Lots of fruit which is mature but should hold for a while.

Remarkably good. Cinnamon like a La Tache, fully mature, solid red fruit, good balance, fully mature but still lively.

Nice, but not worth what I paid for it.

Chunky, not the grace one expects from a Grand Cru. Almost certainly too early, didn't taste like Burgundy although full of fruit. Not much length.
