I purchased this on release and it is now drinking really well. There are notes of moss, black cherry, menthol, game and earth. It has a hint of coffee development and good depth of fruit in the mouth. It is very Nuits with some bloody, iron things going on and the finish has a gentle flex of muscle and good persistence.

1999 Red Burgundy with Richard Brazier (Handford Wines, London): Quite a complex nose , lively and open. Light spice maybe a touch roast meat. However the palate is not there, and felt light with a thin mid palate and hard edges. One dimensional in a way. Andreas 88 / Nicol 90 > 89

Quite open and expressive nose, fruit, earth, spices. Slightly lacking texture on the palate, nice acidity, not a lot of grip, slightly spicy, decent length, but not very complex or concentrated. 86-88
