Wine therapy. Carafe 20min. Le nez est expressif mais montre des signes de fermeture. Bel équilibre mature malgré la réduction. Après aération, le nez exprime joliment la groseille et la cerise. Magnifique d élégance, gourmandise et texture en bouche avec des petites note kirchees et confiturees de fraise des bois . 91

Yes! This has put on weight in last two years. Bright red fruit, some earthiness, and increasingly prickly tannins on the finish after a few hours of air This is past the primary fruit stage I recall, but it is not yet to full maturity. Was my last bottle but still a 2-5 years from peak. This will not reach the highest peaks, but is proof that Good values can still be found off the beaten path, and this is one of them at $45. 90+

Just lacking a bit of complexity for the price point, but still very elegant, fresh and pretty aromas and flavors. Should be open a few hours prior of serving to add dimension since last glass was the best.

Knightsbridge Annual Holiday Burgundy/Champagne Tasting and Sale (Northbrook, IL): Walk around tasting. Combination of black and red cherry with bright textures and good balance. Good+ depth and weight for its level. I liked this more today vs when last tasted in 2017.

Knightsbridge 11th Annual Burgundy and Champagne Tasting (Northbrook, IL): Really impressive for the appellation, showing a really intense juiciness and lovely freshness. Bright red fruit that is a little crunchy. Not too complex on the palate, but lovely and very approachable.
