  Clear red, hint of orange edge, long thin drops. Graphite, blackberry , black cherry , vanilla , tobacco , oak and undergrowth nose. Red cherry , black cherry , red apple and redcurrant taste. Bright fruit, some secondary aromas, tannins had good grip on teeth on opening , which softened after half an hour or so. Good acidity to balance the tannins and fruit.

  Over two days. Minimal bricking.
  
  Still tightly wound, the bouquet and profile. The second day revealed a pomegranate, blackberry, violet, sweet herb, and mineral driven bouquet. A rustic Pommard, offering surprising tannin...and yet with that lovely Burgundian textural nuance coming through.
  
  Overall, this remains a young wine, indeed, very young. I would not hesitate to hold bottles for another seven to ten years. Improvement seems possible.

  No detailed notes as this was consumed some time ago, but both my wife and I recall this as being outstanding. Ethereal black fruits, minerals and floral notes with excellent balance.

  Tuesday Night Double Blind $40+ (Bin 75 Alpharetta, GA): Dark ruby, clarity, pale rim; youthful nose, ripe, oak not yet fully integrated, all the aesthetics of a very nice wine, great balance, rich, high toned youthfulness but not the mid palate density I was hoping for, clove and oak spice, silkier tannin; considered Pousse Volnay but went with Perrot Minot Gevrey '14.

  Sweet and savory herbs. Still kinda tight but just opened. Still primary as well.
