  This bottled profiled a little different than the first two, but still shared some similarities. Still garnet stone color. Cherry bowl, forest floor and mushroom aromas. Satiny entry. Cherry, raspberry, orange and spice flavors. Maybe just a beam or twinkle of cassis too. Chambolle tart finish.
  This was really wonderfully interesting. 94

  Even better than the previous bottle - richer red/black fruit, blood orange and asian spice. Terrific wine.

  Wonderful and interesting. When first opened it was dominated by red fruit (cranberry, currant, strawberry) and seemed less complex that I would have expected. Over the course of the meal it became much more interesting with added notes of blood orange, mushroom, forest floor etc. Drinking well now. Enjoy if you have some!

  Kept under condition 1 since about 2016 (see my profile). Nose with quite rich and refined mushrooms and sous-bois. Taste: strawberry and cherry; still some drying tannins, that resolved after one hour, leaving a very soft, indeed charming wine. At the second day slightly less good, especially with food. Best to drink within one year, I guess. First day 92-93, second 90-91.
