Drank over 3+ hours. Showing a bit of age in the color. Nose took a while to get going, but once it did it was very floral but emphasized iron and earth. Pungent berry fruit on the palate with dried flower, a bit of cherry cough syrup and a metallic and tannic finish. Very pleasant but for me this is at its peak. Drink now.

Youthful appearance. Nose has raspberries, violets, smoke, earth, very primal. On the palate, there is harmony, although still massive acidity and tannins. Still needs many years of bottle age.

Decanted because of small sediment. No ullage but moist staining of top of cork under capsule. Very long cork. Bright and clear light red colour. Pungent berry fruit on nose. Delicate and restrained on palate but in complete balance with its tannin. In its prime and a perfect passport to midsummer gloaming.

This is one of about 1400 bottles made. Beaune style...more easy...more elegance... A little bit too young but nice. Seductive and lovely nose. Good complicated !! I don't feel much of strawberry but berry....Rosewood.... Complex and well-balanced...Hi-Class wine with a very very nice aftertaste.
....this is nice, lovely, easy but not simply.....
