Last tasted in January 2015 when I gave it 91 points. I am glad to have kept this bottle (and one more) as it is now in its element. It has a fairly dark colour and the palate is full and sturdy, with concentrated, savoury fruit and good length. A true Grand Cru which is now mature but will keep for several more years.

Medium depth of colour, with some brown; quite ripe and full strawberry, raspberry and cherry fruit; some secondary notes and reasonable length. Certainly very good, but not a great wine; drinking well now.

A fairly mature colour and quite deep; quite intensely perfumed on the nose; there is fresh fruit (raspberry, strawberry and cherry) and various vegetal overtones, including mushroom and some spice. Some racy acidity keeps everything in balance and the finish is very long indeed.

The Doctor Is In (Eleven Madison Park): Not closed yet but so infused with tannin it's a wonder why not; maybe it's headed there. With pale red fruit and a sweetish cakey finish, not the usual meaty Chambertin heavyweight.

This is serious. Depth, clarity, intensity and persistence.
