  Another fantastic bottle - same notes as last time - about as perfumed and expressive as burgs get. If I have to nitpick - there is a touch of hollowness in the midpalate but for the vintage and the appellation, this is spectacular. Drinking superbly straight out of the bottle.

  Terrific stuff from an underrated vintage. Even after an hour of air this is drinking great. Beautiful nose of violets and dried berries. Medium to light bodied with good concentration and elegance. Black cherries, blueberries and lot of spice on the palate. Mouthwatering finish, which lingers for a while. More Vosne then Gevrey, but is that really a complaint?
