  What a difference five years have made. What was once a tightly coiled wine has now opened up, revealing a richly fruited, somewhat dense, earthy and meaty expression of Pinot Noir. It still has plenty of acidity to give it a clean finish and mostly likely continue to mature for another 5-10 years.

  Aromas of red fruits, cedar, and damp soil, with sweet floral notes emerging with further aeration. The palate is suave, with tart cherry flavors, and spices. Has a long finish, with lingering minerality. A good value wine that is drinking beautifully with many years of prime drinking remaining.

  Drank via Coravin over the course of a month. Nice red burg, although a bit acidic and pretty light mouthfeel.

  Drank via Coravin. Didn't give it much air, which may have done it a disservice. Nose of ripe red cherries, with perhaps ahint of menthol. On the palate, more bright red cherry fruit- quite ripe. Fruit forward, but lacking the tertiary mineral, terroir and/or forest notes I was hoping for in a red burg or this age profile. Based on other reviews, I'll give it more air next time to see if that helps. Nonetheless, thus was a pleasant enough weekday red burg.

  This wine continues to thrill. Lightly colored but big on impact. Mature red fruit mixes with florals and earth to deliver a complex, inviting wine that disappears far too quickly. Nearing peak drinking yet has a long life ahead. The most underrated Domaine in Burgundy IMHO. (93)
