At opening smelled a bit weird leaning toward an animal component. After some time in the glass this really opened up nicely. Initially it seemed a bit tired but aired allowed the fruit to come out. Very nice long finish.

This bottle was absolutely fantastic ! It shows a lot of finesse and is ‘very pinot’. Elegant and intriguing in a very refined way. Una principezza that keeps on seducing. She comes along with a Louis Vuitton handbag and a bit too much perfume which prevents me from scoring it 98. Anyway I hope I will be able to get more Nuits St Georges La Richemone as these wines are marvellous !

Tasted blind. I am confident this is pinot noir, and almost as confident it is Burgundy. Terrific aromas of funky earth, cherries, grass, cola, and sesame oil. I love the sensation of fresh red berry fruit on the palate. This obviously has some age to it—about ten years?—but it has room to develop. Drink or hold. Rating: 94.

Really good, but probably much too young. Fascinating aromas of sesame oil, black truffles, brown leaves, mint, and cherries. But on the palate, it presents mostly as cherries and strawberries, which is disappointing (to my tastes at least). I suspect that lots more bottle age will correct for this.

This is outstanding. I liken it to a Cezanne painting in terms of color.
