Michael Schuster showing 9 red burgundy wines covering 2016-2006. As usual, wines shown in pairs, so chance to compare and contrast. All wines double decanted 3 hours in advance. Served cool.
Very enjoyable tasting, although nothing really blew me away. Typical wines of the vintages and communes. A pleasure to spend time tasting with Michael Schuster and hearing his comments on the wines and the vintages.
