November 10, 2020 - Muted nose. Light color. Light Body. Shy fruit surrenders to borderline astringency. Decent finish.

October 31, 2017 - This will surprise casual Burgundy drinkers who, like me, might have expected a leaner, higher-toned red from Auxey-Duresses; it is a serious wine with concentrated dark fruit and earth (iron ore?) with tannins that are still a bit firm, though accessible; this will be better at age 8-12 than it is at age 5

March 31, 2015 - A bit tight right now, but should be very nice with some age. Darker fruited and earthier than the 2012 La Chapelle.

March 7, 2015 - A wine of immense potential, but not currently not that accessible. Beautiful deep pinot nose. Compared to the 2011, this wine shows greater concentration and immense tannin on the palate. For current drinking, open the '11, and let your '12 sleep in the cellar.
