  Oh my god, this is one of the most TANNIC Burgundies I have ever had. Do not open this for 5+ years. The tannins coat your whole mouth in bitter explosion. The noise is ok for a burg, lot's of dark cherry fruit. It doesn't taste worth the money now. Hours of aeration helped the tannins a bunch but the noise wasn't nearly as good as in the beginning, so stick this in a dark cellar for a good number of years.

  BYO Centropa (Centropa, Deichmann, Oslo): Servert blindt. Klar, ung purpurrød. Ungdommelig bærpreg med intens duft av kirsebær, i motsetning til Arnoux-Lachaux NSG som var tydelig jordbærpreget. Lite fat å spore her, men et herlig vosne-typisk spicy preg. Svær i anslaget, men elegant, med stor konsentrasjon og dybde, fullpakket munnfølelse med røde bær, et svakt orientalsk vosne-preg og behagelig, ren syreprofil. Lang, elegant smakskurve med middels tanningrep og rene bærtoner og søtlige kryddertoner i ettersmaken. Et raus bidrag til kvelden!

  Cathiard Vosne-Romanee Aux Reignots 2015.
  6 timer i karaffel.
  Dyp som Hornindalsvatnet.
  Eksklusivt treverk, spice, mørk parfymert frukt.
  Meget forførende.
  Følger opp på smak med flott fylde.
  Superb fruktkonsentrasjon og fin syre.
  Alt du ønsker av kraft og eleganse.
  Balanserer det utrolig fint.
  Denne har et langt liv foran seg.
  Fantastisk finish - lang, presis og med topp tanninkvalitet.
  Nydelig Pinot-spice i ettersmaken.
  Killer vin. 95p

  Took a while to get going. Had a similar "unclean" start on the nose as 2013 did end of last year, but blew off after a hour or so in the decanter. We aired this wine for like 4, 5 or 6 hours. For my palate this was probably too much as I felt the wine had already started the transition from the fresh, sweet, red-to-dark fruit which I got when checking in on the wine in the decanter - to the more dark and massive fruit together with some smokey wood character. Of the two phases, at least on the nose, I prefer the former. This is a deep and massive wine. Very impressive. Stylistically I prefer the 2013 although the 2015 can clearly go on for decades. The group enjoyed this one even more than I did.
