    Burnt sienna bricky color to clear rim; blood orange and golden raisin notes over classic old sous bois and autumnal burgundy on the nose; great texture/viscosity on the palate; enveloping mature fruit, velvety balance, resolved tannins, ideal level of acidity carries things to a long finish. In a great place right now. A generous, caressing wine with a more “feminine” and regal style to it right now. 93+
    Addendum: This is more exuberant, fresher liveliness of fruit on second day. 94

    My last bottle and it was flawed. Nothing obvious, just no life, no fruit. No TCA or oxidation detected.Bearing in mind the last bottle in January was superb this was a shame and finished a bad few days of flawed bottles.

    Very pale red but bright and no browning. No decant, just pop and pour, cool from cellar. Straight off intense red fruit nose, v fragrant but taut. Taste brilliant from the first sip. Red fruits with sousbois underneath, all in a tight 1993 frame. Very intense deep with great freshness and balance. With time nose developed with coffee and floral notes. Deepened on palate with richer fruits coming through. This was a brilliant bottle.

    Slightly bricking medium dark cherry red colour ; red fruit, strawberry nose with a touch of brett; delicious, rich, tart cherry, wild cherry, red fruit palate; medium-plus finish, Lovely elegant burgundy---How can anyone not like this style of wine?

    Tasted blind. Licorice and prunes on the nose, very extracted. On the palate it is expansive, with notes of earth and a sweet finish, hints of black pepper. I didn't like this very much, and when I discovered what it was thought it was very atypical for the appellation.

    (Esmonin Frédéric Ruchottes-Chambertin) Deep ruby colour though there's more of an amber caste than the Mazy. The nose shows more oak, but this slowly fades to leave chocolate cake, plum and eventually a toasty cherry note. The palate has good fat and sweet, slowly fading fruit. The tannin is fully resolved though the acidity shows just a little tartness at the end. Less rounded than the Mazy, but despite the tart finish, more than pleasant.
