  Smoother, silkier palate. Darker colour, but still sweet red fruit profile. More resolved but still too alcoholic/heady.

  I thought this was killing it last night. Dark and brooding with those secondary aged pinot scents of farm and earth. The fruit still tastes so primary and young, amazing at this point. Tastes younger than the nose suggests and there is a strong frame to the body. This wine is awesome now, but feels like it's just getting ready for prime time. Really, really good. If this was all I had in my cellar Id' be thrilled. Just exactly what I want red Burgundy to be.

  Tasted in burgundy. Beautiful nose. Secondary notes, cherries, tea. Big fruit on the palate but still an elegance to it. Silky but still good structure. Long finish.

  A bit darker, denser and more extracted looking (and smelling) than the '93 Chevillon Vaucrains and Cailles tasted on prior occasions; initial bricking but with residual ruby core. Vivid scent of "mushrooms on the forest floor" along with driving red and black fruit. In the mouth, younger than the appearance or aromas suggest, with rich fruit framed by the slightly burly acid and tannin of the vintage; although still prominent, the tannin is notably sweet and round. Very mineral, almost chewy but not at all rustic finish. Really sings with food (we paired it with roasted veal), and I noticed that its decanter was drained the most quickly of any wine served today. I wouldn't hesitate to serve this now -- or at the end of the decade.
