October 18, 2022 - The most lifted and charming wine of the flight (the hint to the terroir was here!). Beautiful aromatic complexity. Sweet cherry and mix currant, sleek earthy minerals on the palate. Incredibly perfumed and slightly stemmy. Sleek and ethereal, reminded me of Rousseau. (94/100)🥇 Guess: 2015 Gevrey Chambertin 1Er Cru Combe Aux Moine

June 29, 2021 - Decanted for ~2-hrs. This seemed to have lost its youthful exuberance (the "liquorice cherry" note)... but definitely still a young/youthful wine. However, it's now more "classic Gevrey", w/ more pronounced notes of earth, rather than straight-out violets/roses which we tend to associate with young Duroches. That said, a beautiful wine of elegance & grace, medium-body, with red-fruited/cherry notes lifted by nicely balanced acidity/freshness. Interesting to see how this continues to develop with age...

July 15, 2020 - Popped, and breathed from the bottle for ~2-hrs before pouring. Am surprised this still exhibited a tad of that "liquorice cherry" notes on the nose, which was quickly followed by scents of violets, and roses after some time in the glass. Red-fruited elegant/lifted palate (gaining weight as it fleshed out), with ash/earth plus a dope of minerality. Overall, an alluring drink with a not-so-long'ish finish (for now). Will be interesting to see how this develops with age...
