May 19, 2019 - Fragrant with dried strawberry, cherry, wilted roses and truffle. More dried strawberry and cherry on the palate with spice, damp soil and mulch. It’s earthy and savoury, with tannin fully integrated and a beautiful acid line. Probably around the peak of its maturity although I’m sure it will hold a few years more.

January 30, 2016 - Mushroom, wet soil, dried herbs, with a little cherry and cranberry. The fruit side showing more with air. Super fine tannins and good acid make this very smashable.

November 10, 2014 - Full dark red. Very expressive floral rich nose. Flowers, red cherry and earth. This was velvety seamless round wine. Juicy but with some minerality. Very 2011 in character. Had along side the 2010 Boillot Volnay Les Caillerets and the 2005 Montille Volnay Les Mitans. Nice stuff.

October 25, 2014 - (Pre-Road-Trip Brunner) Mandarin orange, exotic spice and cola nut. Meaty savoury five-spice. Plum preserve. Dry forest floor, smallgoods, black/maraschino cherry, edging on a hint of mothball. Ends classy with grapefruit bitters. Young.

August 27, 2013 - Flight 3, Burgundy, Wine 7 (blind): The wine was medium ruby in colour and offered a restrained nose of cherry, red berries, forest floor, liquorice and well-integrated oak. On the palate the wine showed forest berries, liquorice, cocoa, dark chocolate plus blood orange on the aftertaste, paired with medium-plus fruity and well-balanced acidity, medium-level medium-fine tannin and very good length. A very good, elegant, medium-complex village that may be consumed with or without food. 88+
