A rather sensational showing here with plenty of lifted sweet fruit (much more so than previous bottle which was more "sauvage"). A real dancer and just showcases the magic of CLB well to produce a village 14 like this. Good now for my palate before it looses the winemaker signature.

This is visually clearly the palest rendition of any wine chez CLB and here too almost transculent brown red tones. Hauntingly smokey nose upon pop and pour, wild forst strawberries, touch of rose hip. A very mineral expression in the mouth, with lovely acidity, quite sauvage and hauntingly long finish, crazy to think this is a 14 village level. A total heart wine, somehow makes me think this is how autumn would taste like if it could be bottled - well maybe it has.

La Paulée de New York Gala Dinner (Pier Sixty, Chelsea Piers - New York NY): Late night, small glass, brief note. Great Vosne nose, similar palate just less intense. Good weight.

淡宝石红色,闻香是肉味,梗香,红果,石灰,甜美橡木桶和明显的芝麻香,入口酸度高,单宁紧致,颗粒细腻,收尾微甜,草莓硬糖的香气和梗香,口感很干净,酒体有些单薄,余味是红果味。一支香气大于口感的酒,入口复杂度稍逊一筹。
