A private lunch (Restaurant De Lage Vuursche, Lage Vuursche, NL): A wonderfully complete and elegant package, beautifully defined fruit, polished stemmy energy, silky and harmonious, supple and stylish, lacy texture, firm but papery tannins enveloped in ripe flesh, elegant sweet oak, long and flowing finish with a delightful hint of sauvage. Exceptional quality for a village.

Penetrating whole cluster nose with stemmy notes, spices. Very good. Lots of fruit and dry extract on expansive palate. Straddles well power and freshness which looks a feature of the 2019 vintage for reds. Average complexity for now but likely upside with aging. I will keep remaining bottle for 5+ years. Bordering on if not outright inside good 1er Cru territory

Incredibly floral nose with notes of dark red fruit, crushed violets, spice and bay leaves. The palate is elegant, tart and spicy with notes of tart red fruit, florals, forest floor, pepper along with a charming and alluring mid-palate in texture.finishing spicy. This is way too young and a little more tart than what I remember from MSD from Dujac. luckily I have 2 other bottles.93 today but with plenty of up side.
