November 4, 2020 - Double decanted for about an hour before drinking. This wine is a bit disjointed. It has lots of acid intermixed with a bitter melon component. Not a lot of fruit left. The color shows some age and the nose is nice.

January 11, 2020 - Poured dark ruby into the glass with little sign of age. Initially, this had the distinctive nose of Hawaiian Punch and/or some gummy candy from my childhood. Fresh but sort of confected? Not terribly off putting, simply not what I would expect from a 1er Cru from Morey-Saint-Denis. After a few hours, the Hawaiian Punch gave way to a slightly more traditional strawberry compote and a bit of a mushroom thing. Tart finish. Interesting for sure but I question whether it delivered the pleasure I would expect from a 1er, regardless of the fact that it’s an obscure 1er from M-S-D that is rarely bottled as such. Will this last longer in the cellar? For sure...probably another decade. Will it evolve into something better? I seriously doubt it. At eleven years old, this basically is what it is: a better than ordinary Burgundy but only just.

July 27, 2016 - Fresh cranberry nose with barnyard backing. More cranberry on the palate, but of a candied or canned sauce variety. Some herbal quality. Firm acidic structure, concluding with a Granny Smith apple finish. One dimensional at this point.
