In a good place. Still has easily 3-5 more years to go. Lots of primary fruit, good acid and solid structure. Not overly complex, but round and luscious without being over the top.

This is a beautiful effort. Rustic and juicy. This is what CNDP should be all about imho. No kirsch liquor. Go look for this if Bonneau or Pegau are too expensive (they are!). Although not in the same league, this wine is successful in mixing an elegant and rustic profile at the same time. A great wine from this fast maturing vintage that can still be kept for a while.

Still oaky, but also plums, smoke, dusty tannin. Still very nice.

Nose: oak and sweet spice, taste: crisp, burnt berries, aromatic spices, earth in finish. Well balanced. Has aged well.

Cork was soaked through, leaking wine. Oxidized. This was in a temp controlled storage cellar; must be bad cork.
