Small glass, brief note. Lots of lemon, lemon peel and lemon curd. Good weight, also very refreshing acidity.

Small glass, brief note. Bright red fruit, medium weight for now, good length and balance.

Small glass, brief note. So good already, with upside. Good if ripe red fruit, then a burst of energy leading to a long, long finish.

Small glass, brief note. Somewhere between the 18th hole and the 19th hole.

Small glass, brief note. Open 5 hours before I tasted. Very dense, rich and butterscotchy with fresh and dried stone fruit. Lots of power. 93 points now, but I expect it might have been even better a few hours back.

Small glass, brief note. Black fruited than typical for Vosne with good richness and density for Villages. Slightly spicy with some roasted meat. Good+ balance and length for its level.

Very advanced for its age.
