Popped and poured and then next day tasted. Acidity still prominent fruit not. Some tertiary development with earthiness and mushroom but not enough fruit for me. Not in balance. Next day opened up some more. Drink up

Vieilles Vignes! Steht auf dem Etikett. Perfekte aus dem Bestand von Jochen D. Rauchig wie ein Cote Rotie. Fruchtreste von roten Früchten (Himbeere, Kirsche?) paaren sich auch 1,5 Stunden nach dem Öffnen der Flasche mit dem Rauch. Hatte einen ähnlichen Wein noch nie. Spannend, interessant. Also würde sich die Frucht hinter Staub verstecken. Lecker. Na ja, warten wir den zweiten Tag ab. Wirkt drahtig. Das Gegenteil von marmeladig und oder Fruchtbetont. Ein Burgunder für den Intellekt? In verschieden Burgunder und Weißweingläsern probiert. 89-91? Höhepunkt: 2006-2019? Vermute, dass man den Wein idealerweise vor etwa zehn bis fünfzehn Jahren getrunken hat?!

This is an outstanding burgundy and it's in a great drinking spot now. Earthiness, forest floor, mushroom, soft acidity, complexity. This is simply outstanding. 95 points.

First of a new case and this was a lower fill with some run-up and seepage showing in the cork. Very good right out of the bottle with the great ripe red fruit I remember along with some leather and game. When in the mood this is just a fun style of Burgundy that is ripe and easy to enjoy without and with food. Sure, it is not the most complex, lost a bit of fruit at 90 minutes, and should be drunk now (based on this bottle) but plenty enjoyable now for what it is. A-

Good flowery and old vintage flavor from opening. After opening, a few hours really enjoyable.
