  Two weeks in France; 4/12/2024-4/24/2024: So tight and dense at first, with the oak use and chalky tannins dominating. Dark red fruit that was rustic and earthy with some smoky spice. Was slightly disappointed by this as it was too powerful and robust; more NSG than Vosne. Thankfully when we revisited this after dinner it was absolutely singing; the power had integrated on both nose and palate to deliver a superb drive and finesse that was finally both M-G and 2017.

  Gorgeous Burgundy drank (for a fair price) at La Marine in Noirmoutier.
  The bouquet was dominated by intense red cherries, slight orange zest and a little blood and bacon, giving it an umami impression.
  Followed the wine over a day and it opened up even more after a few hours. The tannins are very refined and the overall mouthfeel is more Vosne than Nuits-Saint-Georges.
  This wine is delicious right now but will probably develop even more complexity with another 5-10 more years. Should easily hold for 2 decades.

  Bu au Soufflot à Meursault, nez épicé et assez complexe, du fruit à revendre en bouche aussi, belle strucutre, texture assez fine malgré la puissance, belle longueur, très beau vin. 92-93
  
  Gorgeous wine, red fruit and spices, complex nose, fine and elegant with structure and a texture based on finesse despite the relative power of the palate and great length.

  Slow oxed for 7 hours before serving yet it is still too tight. So I decanted the wine for 30 mins before serving. Nose is still quite shut yet palate shows strong core darkish red berry fruit. It has exceptional power and weight, almost grand-cru like. It is more like a 2016 instead of 2017. The wine still requires at least 5 years to enter its early drinking window. Be patient. Good potential.

  Beaune, France. From the restaurant's wine list. This was less expensive than Vosne-Romanee Villages from the same producer.
  It was also less developed, more crunchy-red-fruited. Better on Day 2, more stuffing is evident here. Leave it alone for another few years. A very solid premier cru.
