  tasted side by side the '15. lighter in color than the '15
  nose - woodsy. bit of mushroom material
  mouth - elegant and refined. the fruit is present but unlike the bolder, in-your-face '15, here it's more of a suggestion. this comes across to me as more of an infusion, a steeped tea, if you will. Quite classic I think, and though it may be an obscure reference, I'd say it's more of a friendly wine. Really pays homage to what a good Burgundy prototypically can be. having said that I think the '15 would have more fans, Mais pas moi.

  Consistent with my previous note. These wines have an aromatic je ne sais quoi.

  This is initially rather oaky, with pretty sweet cherry fruit behind. After a while the oak blows off a bit and the nose is gorgeous: profound cherries and strawberries, some minerality.
  Luscious mid-weight stone fruit flavours on the palate. Strong peach flavour here - unusual for pinot!
  Concentrated, rich-textured with robust acidity and lots of fine tannin. The oak is still there but I have zero doubt it will integrate.
  This is really good. Serious for a village wine, and perfectly balanced so many years ahead of it. And most importantly, absolutely delicious.

  I’ve found I haven’t enjoyed village level wines except for chambolle and volnay…and this wine makes that clearer for me. My second bottle of this 2014 and it was just as good if not better than the last. Always a fan of lignier but this was super enjoyable and as I previously commented…punches way above its weight.
