  Visit to Bouchard Père & Fils (Beaune): Nose with strawberries, slightly flowery, discrete spice. Palate with strawberries, good concentration, sweetness of fruit in the attack, noticeable spice, some tannin (some of them probably from the oak), aftertaste with sweet strawberries and slightly dry tannins. Approachable, could develop more, 89(+) p.
  Better and more balanced than I expected, since Hospice wines (and in particular those from "lighter" appellations) risk being overoaked since they almost always are sold in new oak barrels.
