In good condition, attractive garnet color, gently spicy and earthy nose. Palate texture is the highlight. In the glass the wine develops more richness over time, finishing with tannic dryness. Very much improved with time in the glass after a mute beginning, and came to life with food. Liked but not exceptional.

Garnet to dark garnet color in the glass, clear looking throughout. Nose of flowers, berries and cherries. Luscious flavors of berries, cherries and raspberries. Medium acidity, medium tannin, full bodied. Drink or hold.

Quite ripe and creamy, with sarsaparilla notes and black fruits. Floral spice with air. Breathes up nicely and is in a good place.

Young, but with a good decant it's very enjoyable.

Grand Burgundy Tasting (Knightsbridge Wine Shop (Northbrook, IL)): One of the highlights of the tasting for me. Beautiful ripe round fruit. A real unique pungent shroomyness that I immediately fell in love with.
