  Dusky mature red.
  Popped and poured this was immediately accessible (in contrast to a 2010 DM village Gevrey drunk last week but notes not posted, dull and uninspiring).
  The nose has a very savoury, earthy gaminess with a background hint of baking spice and subtle rose florals.
  The palate a perfect melange of sweet strawberries and pure limestone mineralite but with breadth and complexity, blood orange, Oolong tea, violets, bright acidity and essentially structurally resolved.
  Beautiful mature Burgundy. Surprisingly feminine in its rusticity.

  Light-medium (-) ruby, translucent, 13%abv. Barnyard and perfumed nose of great pleasure. Dry, medium (+) acidity, medium super silky tannin, medium alcohol and ditto body. Savory attack supported with strawberries, red cherry, tobacco.
  Utterly delicious, a lesson in elegance and strength. Fruit balances a savory palate with freshness. Very long bright, almost light-footed yet serious finish. Wine to contemplate and to contemplate with.
  With venison stew: delightful.
  👍

  Dark cerise.
  Interesting nose of sweet, dark earth, elements of confection, Turkish delight, sois bois, mirepoix, Sri Lankan spice.
  Very pure palate of intense limestone mineralite, framed by roses and violets, spice and animale. Vibrant acidity, unobtrusive structure, this seems to alternate between masculinity and a beguiling femininity. Delicious, cerebral wine. Bravo!

  Initially very charming with pleasant fruit combined with high acidity. But after some time it sort closed down and became very dark. Hard to judge but seems to want more time in the cellar.

  Bit dark, just ok.
