Dark ruby with bricking Aromatics medium. Dust and cherry Palate has a medium body. Acid medium+. Tannins medium +, medium grained. Alcohol medium. Cherries and chalk. Finish has a medium length. Balance towards the structure. Fruit is fading. Seems rather one-dimensional. Hasn't developed any tertiaries like I would have hoped.

Still excellent. Bright cherry dominates, followed by various red fruit and a subtle dark chocolate finish. I would feel comfortable holding on to this bottle for a few more years, but drinking very well right now.

Soft red fruit in harmony with fading tannin - quite simple but a delicious example of how a basic cru bourgeois can age so well in a good year.

Same experience as Wuhan Joe. Been in my cellar for eight years. Only two left, and I'm glad I saved them.
