June 20, 2015 - I started slow oxing this in a PN glass around 3:30, tasting occasionally, and drinking it between 7 - 9:30ish with our guest. Right out of the btl it was open for business but more primary until shortly after we started to drink it with dinner. This wine is crazy good with kaleidoscopic flavors. Finesse, elegance and complexity are it's calling cards. So much so, that its power and tannins go unnoticed. This is old school but not brutish or unfriendly in any way. I was, completely, smitten with this wine. We had two other great reds at the table but this one blew me away. Overused, but this is "Burgundian" and "ethereal" personified. Everything I hoped this would be. Can I keep my hands off my other btls? I doubt it. Paid $140 drinks in the class of a top shelf $500 plus Rousseau Grand Cru.
