  Fruit forward red burg with cherry notes dominating. Shows earthiness and hints of wood as well.

  Lots of things in the right place here. Just starting to reveal secondary aromas, primary fruit is receding a bit and starting to show an earthy, tertiary roundness. Some nicely balanced and accentuated dark fruit and spice beneath the cloaking structure. Really needs a healthy decant, or just keep waiting. '05 is so strong.

  Great wine - real balance and I’d argue in its sweet spot now. Very little not to like - all the elements, good fruit, nice acidity and tannins and moderate alcohol all contribute to a very enjoyable wine.

  Very nice village level Arnoux. Just starting to show secondary aromas. Young, cool, kind of tight, but a good dose of ripe fruit too. Dark fruit and spice. Very nice, but needs time imo

  Really nice ... especially for a village wine, and actually drinks like a premier cru. Textbook example of a burgundy with plenty of dark fruits, spice and earth, a silky, lean texture, good structure and no sharp edges. Perhaps just a bit simple, but that is being really picky. In its prime drinking window right now (its been in my temp-controlled cellar since release).
