September 4, 2019 - I was floored by this wine. Having tasted and disliking many classic CDP heavy hitters (Clos Papes, Beaucastel, Vieux Telegraphe, etc) this is by far the best CDP i've ever tasted. There is such burgundy Pinot like purity of fruit that just glides through the palette from start to finish. The acid is perfectly pitched and drinks effortlessly as it never comes off as heavy or overbearing like many CDPs today. A very eye opening experience on what CDP can be. No reason to hold this, it is in a beautiful spot at the moment.
