September 25, 2023 - Definitely slightly beyond peak but a wine that presses all the right buttons. Vastly more elegant and sophisticated than a typical passetoutgrains but really light floral-raspberry nose, bright and supple palate than has thinned and is shorter than it was last time I had this. Amazing for a ten year old passetoutgrains but definitely time to drink these up (which won't be a problem!).

March 16, 2021 - A bit thin, almost undrinkable on day one but it fills out on day two. Cranberry and tea. At the current prices, you might as well go with the bourgogne rouge instead.

August 19, 2018 - Assez simple, acidité un peu forte ou plutôt acidulé avec une astringence en finale et un manque de corps et de substance un peu, mais compte tenu de l’appellation et du millésime, peut-être que mes attentes étaient un peu hautes.
