Second bottle much better than the first I had which seemed plummy and more medicinal. This one started that way but after 2-3 hours in the decanter (first bottle was p'n'p) it shed those qualities and became more floral tinged, pure dark fruit and "sous bois"-y . Good length, although still a bit large in shape compared to other bottlings from Bize. Still, it had the signature of the domaine and was sad when there wasn't any left in the bottle.

I love this. I can't wait to revisit another bottle in a few years. But will cellar the others I have for awhile. Or then again, maybe I won't have the will power with this one.
