Very satisfying wine of a great vintage. I would not say it has a deeper sense of emotion or anything wow, though well made and a satisfying experience of high quality pinot noir. A most reliable domaine in my experience and definitly a consistently good showing. But then I should ask myself the question: Are the spoiled among us speaking? Because this definitely is a wine that would make your day most enjoyable!

Beautiful Burgundy, the way it should be. Velvety sensuous mouthfeel, moderate acidity, restrained at first but opening over an hour to reveal beautifully layered flavors of black and red fruit, tea and spices, earth and blood. This will only improve with time, glad I have another bottle.

Blind tasting dinner. Expressive and complex nose here, ripe fruit, sour cherry, some animalic notes. Feels young, on the riper side for a Burg as so often with this producer but due to the 2010 vintage stays fresh and racy. Popular at the table. I would give this wine till 2025 to add some more tertiary notes.

Somehow it feels this wine needs a bit more time still to develop. But most enjoyable now and from a great vintage.
