Nice but hoping for a bit better. Regardless, smooth, elegant, nice Roche. Drinking really well, can go for ages. Decanted 2 hours, probably could have used a 6 hour decant!! Last glass after 4 hrs by far the best.

Some nice Burgundies (Chicago, IL): An absolutely fantastic showing led this to be considered among the top wines of the evening. This is pure 2010 -- the red cherry gives it all away. But this is at the same time showing plenty of structure, both from the acids and some coarse but resolving tannins. The acidity renders this almost refreshing.

Half bottle at restaurant. Really floral and uplifting nose with a medium bodied, fruity, silky palate. Highly palatable.

Rust red color. Heavy alcohol on the nose but not a lot else. Pleasantly bitter raspberries with strong acids to match a sturdy mineral structure.
