  Grandes Maisons Grands Crus - Grands Jours de Bourgogne 2024 (Santenay): Very earthy aromas, on the monolithic side, not as much complexity as in the Mazis next to it. Give it cellar time till 2030 at least.

  Chalky after texture from the nice soft but full tannins.
  Beautiful ruby color
  Opened up beautifully after about 20 minutes
  Delicious with the acids from a citrus salad
  Fruits are more crushed in nature
  After an hour, the fruit starts to shine through with the tannins taking a needed backseat
  Fantastic with food, sausage

  Visit to Domaine Faiveley (Nuits St George, Burgundy, France): Medium(+) dark, touch of purple. Strawberry jam, especially when first opened; strawberry. Cranberry. Red and black plum? Rosehip. Stemmy. Still quite firm and stoney, under the riper jammy character. Initial jamminess disappears with air. Smoke, cedar, sweet spice -- cinnamon, vanilla. Lovely now(!!), but will be great in 10+ years time. €205.

  Wednesday Cellar Visits in Burgundy - Louis Jadot, Faiveley, and Bernard Moreau (Cote d'Or): Barrel tasting at the domaine from a single new oak barrel. More red vs black cherry here with subtle meat and savory spice. Good structural spine that keeps this going towards its long finish, while never dominant. Very good balance, good+ potential for its level.
