Still fresh fruit, strawberry and raspberry, more open than the last bottle I had some three years ago. Good balance. Velvety and soft tannins. Drinks very well now.

Developed dark red color. Black earthy brownish edge. A bit unclear. Fine grained sediments. Nose has a powerful feeling, some volatile alcoholes, lots of almonds and marzipan, liquorice, leather and dust. Partially developed. The palate is full, powerful and has a long aftertaste. Lots of sour berries, redcurrant and sweet cherries. I score this one lower than I have earlier bottles, mainly because it was tasted against a better wine this time, (Matrot Volnay Santenots 2007) and because there is less succulent, fresh fruit in it as it has developed a bit since my first bottle. Still a good wine, but I would drink up in the next year because this wine is not likely to develop further in a positive direction.

Fresh pinot with lots of fruit. Quite dry/tannic straight after opening but after a couple of hours very balanced and elegant fruit with good depth. Excellent value.

Magnum, needed some air, then perfect match with quail and foie gras
