There is a lot to like here in terms of fruit and structure but it's a bit too reduced for my taste after 15 years. It's an '05 so perhaps this will be great a decade from now?

I served this in my wine course. Low pitched nose that includes some baking spice (cinnamon?). Medium to full bodied in the mouth. Some distracting vegetal flavors attenuated a bit as it warmed from 60 to 65F. Okay, but a bit disappointing given its pedigree.

Interesting understated classic nose, taste is to the dark side, wood present and was closing down after 1 hour. Still to young to drink and accid is still high

A very enjoyable burgundy, but it seems to need a bit more time to mature. I think we are drinking this wine too young.

A one bottle sample, but my bottle reeked of very smokey very pungent brett. Undrinkable.
