  Don’t think that this being a village level wine makes it not cellar-worthy. This has good depth, structure, and vivacity. Dark berries and plum, herbs, spice, and floral notes with a soft, juicy palate that possesses good balance and purity with a long herbal finish. Give this wine ten years to allow the tannins to round out and greater complexity to develop, and this will be as good as a Premier Cru. Old vines here, and very well made, especially for the vintage. Too young though; drink in ten years and beyond.

  Burgundy tasting (K&L Wine Merchant - San Francisco): Nose of rose petals, and vivid cherries with some blueberries. There’s a bit of pronounced ripeness, similar to something like a grenache from central coast, as if the fruit flavors had an aura of cranberry (trying to describe "neon berries" without using Jolly Ranchers). Somehow this quality of ripeness works because it is quite subtle. With little time, nose improves with a darker fruit approach and some deep earth (be patient, the nose definitely got better with air).
  
  The palate showed tart cherries with a bit of freshness, with a center streak of bitter cranberries that lead into the finish. Savory river minerals, dried aged oak and heavily steeped tea on the finish as well. Good acidity here but seems to be missing something, not quite sure what.

  Pure plums and lue berries scents, perfumed, with the NSG energy, juicy and gorgeous texture, very good saline after taste. Punches above its level.
