This is nicely aromatic with Vosne-like spices and black tea layered into red and black cherry. Palate is medium bodied and reasonably silky. Charming.

Very open for business. Lush red fruit. Moderate spice. Red berries, dark fruit, raspberries, red candy. Very well made with all the piece in place...lots of balance here. Soft and supple tannins. The texture is lovely. A great 13

This is my second bottle out of 3. Last tasted in 2018. While it performed great with air back then, it was clearly not ready for prime time. Dark ruby color, no sign of bricking. A bit shy on the opening, it blossoms with air. Red and blue fruits on the palate, raspberries, blueberries, lingonberries. A bit of black tea even. Long persistent finish. Will likely improve further with a few more years in the cellar. Stunning performance for the vintage.

Not totally ready, astringency is a but too prominent. The elements are there for classic red burgundy, but keep this sideways for 3+ more years. Aside form the acidity, it is quite classic and well balanced. Quite elegant for a NSG but also remember it is quite close to Vosne geographically, hence the mix between the two is understandable.
