A very pretty nose. Forest berry and cherry fruit, some stems notes and florals. It's mid weighted, with lovely balance, carrying the weight of the vintage with grace. A lovely mix of berry and cherry fruit, perfume, and savory- stemmy notes on the palate. It's supple and midweghted with a textural softness I love. This is a wine of harmony and interesting contrasts. Elegance with subtle power and depth. A broad palate presence coupled with a light touch and softness in the midpalate. On the back end, another curve ball as it finishes with fine but surprisingly firm tannins. Drinking youthfully well. I will hold my remaining bottles for a few years. 90 +

Pretty good actually. Generous, savoury and quite deep fruited Burgundy. Some sappy and earthy flavours, not overly complex but very satisfying and well made. Has enough of everything to cellar for a while yet. It was, however, much better on day 1, was starting to oxidise and lose its freshness on day 2.

Really great. Definitely imprecise and fat - very 2009. But so friendly and delicious right now. Beautiful cherry and Citrus. Exotic spices and smoke. Long finish. With blistered shisito peppers the wine felt spicy and explosive. A memorable food/wine combo.

Some nice floral notes on the nose, good acid and tannins, but really short drying finish. Not terribly pleasant.
