Very delicious! Opened for about an hour before dinner but did not decant. When I opened it I worried it would be ready for drinking by dinner time, but on my taste after 15 minutes I could tell it would be beautiful and by dinner time it did not disappoint. Medium bodied, nice cherry fruit, violets, some earth. Still puckering acidity on the palate, but with a very nice longish smooth finish.

Probably a bit past its peak due to the sharpish finish. Opened and let it sit for 45 minutes or so. Nose of plum and violets. Full mouth feel of plum, leaves/tobacco and relatively high acids with a cranberry/tannic finish. Better with food. Still enjoyable and good quality. Probably good for a few more years. Updated the CT drinking window, reducing it from 2040. Good +

In a good drinking window. Well balanced, tannins resolved. Nice nose, softer than usual for NSG, perhaps a reflection of the vintage. A very pleasant bottle that with nice typicity. Not profound, but batting at its premier cru level.

Easy drinking NSJ. Judging by the number of bottles consumed, this well balanced light NSJ pleased everyone both pre-dinner and accompanying a stewed lamb. Megeve.

Nothing special out of a .375. Still fairly tannic, and the fruit barely shoulders the acidity. It didn't seem advanced, just a little flimsy.
