  Flawed-mildly corked. Odd medicinal taste.

  My last bottle. This was good but it didn't really develop over 7 years the way I expected. Still a nice but relatively straightforward red Burg. Maybe has actually lost some expressiveness and complexity since my last bottle.

  This is a fine bottle of wine. The nose - after a day - is still a little off putting, someone referred to "Burgundian funk". That about sums that up. And the front palate shares that, slightly, but it is bracing and explodes into dark fruit, another said cherries, I agree, dark cherries, maybe a restrained prune. Framed, in the glass, by a rich translucent, well, burgundy and silky long legs. Lovely. The bright acid complements the dark fruit leaving a lovely finish, defined more by the acidity than the fruit. I cannot stop sipping. 55F and unique lean fruit. There is a great bottle hidden here, in the mean time, for its price and relative youth, this is killing it. It can't quite make the clubhouse turn and fades by a nose, but what a performance until then. What a performance. I know not what exactly this has left, but right now, it's singing, or should I say, galloping?

  Nice red fruit (cherry), nice minerality. Nice acidity. Pretty bright
  fruit. Minerality, tannins and fruit in finish. Really enjoyable.

  Bright ruby in color. A bit tight on the nose, but shows some smoky struck flint character and some spicy notes of cinnamon and toasted oak. The sweet pinot fruit is there in the background, with faint raspberry and blueberry pie aromas. With air, the smokiness recedes and it becomes more floral and perfumed. More harmonious on the palate, with the raspberry fruit and the floral spice merging together more smoothly. It’s a little heavy on the oak, though, especially on the finish, just veering a bit more to the vanilla and creme side than I’d like. Good length, and nice silky texture. Light to medium in weight.
  
  This is good stuff. It’s actually a little more closed down than the bottle I had almost two years ago, and it also shows the oak more prominently. But I like the balance, and I think the oak with calm down with some more time in the bottle. I think I’ll save my last one at least another two years.
