A quintessential Burgundian nose of dried cherries, earth, leather, and truffles. The palate is even more enticing with still ample fruit, incredible acidity, and impeccable balance. Still going strong and I am loving it! thedrunkencyclist.com

I bought six of these a decade ago and this is the first I have opened. Why was I waiting? Admittedly, a bit stewed on the nose, but gangbusters on the palate: great cherry with plenty of earth—pretty much what you would expect from a 1er Cru from the Côte de Beaune. I am heading there this week and this serves as a mere primer. thedrunkencyclist.com

Last of 3 bottles. The previous two showed beautifully, but this one was a little thin and tired.
