  NYE wine 2. 1st of 3 of these. In drinking window but seems has way to go so likely hold the other 2 to see where it goes from here. Darker red fruit, bit of spice for added interest. Slightly heavier, likely due to 2018, but still nicely balanced and easy to drink.

  PNP. This had the dark, ripe, 2018 fruit and was pretty good out of the bottle, showing Vosne spice and a bit of structure. I thought it might shut down but it stayed very drinkable. Next day it had lost the exuberance of day 1 but still holding up well and showing more balance but not necessarily better as the opulence of day 1 was a pleasant surprise. A-

  89 le 1er soir, malgré un coup de carafe. Pour moi l’élevage est trop dominant. Approche du 90 en fin de soirée. Le lendemain le vilain petit canard s’est transformée et on atteint le 91, probablement plus dans quelques années. Vraiment trop jeune à mon avis car la matière y est.

  Much too young. Unlike most village wine, this is built for the long term. The hot 2018 makes this wine drink more like a dark fruit NSG than a VR. 88 for now, 91-93 in 3-5 years.
