August 11, 2020 - Nez assez parfumé, fruits noirs et très pinot au nez tout comme en bouche, fruit assez mûr compte tenu du millésime, structure et finesse vont de pair, pur délice. 89-90

January 18, 2019 - Venue: Band of Bohemia; General Notes: Like listening to Corelli in an 1979 Lincoln Mk V. If what you’re looking for is an extremely well structured and classic Bourgogne rouge, then look no further my discerning friend in platforms. Big pepper, stewed fruit, and a bit of earth followed by raspberry, twizzler, and dried leaves, followed by a superb velvet finish that cruises on for a while. Just like you, with your walking cane and velvet, wide brimmed hat. You may be anachronous, but you still have style. Not what I would typically gravitate to, but oh so good. ; Wine Notes: | Eco Style | Sustainable | Farming Notes | Sustainable agriculture
