Another encounter with this impressive wine. Melted butter, saffron, yellow stone fruit, candy floss and spices on the nose - exuberant, rich, concentrated. On the palate again quite rich and powerful - good acidity, nice mineral core, but a little flabby at times. Impressive length. Slowly drink up. 92-94

Premature Oxidation. Apple, butter, marzipan, some tropical fruit, plenty of new oak. Juicy, mouth watering acidity, spicy, almond, a little sherried with some custard apple. FLAW

Golden clear colour. Nose offers up nectarine, pineapple,white pepper. Rich palate but amazing cleansing mineral acidity.Excellent long protracted finish.

Tasted after the 2009 C-M 1er Cru La Romanée, this is less open and charming, very layered on the nose with notes of spices, ripe fruit, flowers, crushed stones. On the palate fresh and lively but very dense and concentrated. Generous, creamy with underlying minerality and a fine, very persistent finish. Still a little tight. Excellent and approachable, but probably best to wait. 94-95+
