These are just giving sooooooo much pleasure right now - the 2012 is just sitting in a great place with the high pitch acidity offset by the orange peel/rotting corpse(???) notes. A great mix of perfurme versus decay. Awesome value and as Burgundy becomes more expensive the more I buy these wines.

Absolutely banging wine for a measly and meager 11 euros. I've served this blind a couple of times in a Burgundy line up and this had the measure of wines 5 times the price. Orange peel, forest floor, soupy cherries and grippy tannins. Absolute bargain - and now a mainstay of my cellar year on year.

Fabulous aromatic concentration. Lots going on behind the sour cherry and tangerine skin swirls on the palate. Held together with fine tannins. This would have the measure of many a decent villages Gevrey at less than half the price.
