  December 10, 2023 - A wine to hold. Seemingly in a period of dislocation at the moment. Rather ripe and jammy. Richness of 16 without the lift of acidity one might expect. Will almost certainly come together with time. A rather strange bottle; certainly far too young now.

  December 10, 2023 - Houze's Wedding; 12/9/2023-12/10/2023: Seven hours of air translate into lifted blue fruit, clean, ripe, somewhat supple on the back. Decanted quickly, quite large on the palate but nothing particularly exciting for me. 94

  November 7, 2022 - Quality comparable to Chambertin but felt more tightly wound and less leafy. (3503)

  June 9, 2019 - Five winos excellent adventure , mostly in Burgundy; 6/7/2019-6/15/2019 (Beaune, France): Gorgeous youthful nose displaying opulent yet pure black fruit with a hint of red, crushed blackberry, black cherry, strawberry and rhubarb tart, licorice, sap, smoked meat, red flowers, roasted coffee bean and crushed rocks. Excellent concentration, layers upon layers of perfectly ripe crushed blackberry, flamboyant yet pure and energetic, perfect amount of acidity and mineral, very fine tannins and a long pure black fruit driven finish. This is concentrated yet very pure. Excellent showing.

  June 27, 2017 - Winos' excellent adventure in France; 6/22/2017-6/27/2017 (All over France): Regular barrel – Expressive nose displaying rich black fruit, black cherry, blackberry liqueur, ink, licorice, liquid smoke and espresso bean. Excellent concentration, beautifully layered intense black fruits, quite dense yet pure and airy, bright acidity, noticeable fine tannins and a long intense black fruit driven finish. More black fruit and a bit more structured than the second barrel. 98 pts.
  
  Steamed barrel – Rounder nose displaying rich red fruits, raspberry, Chambord, red cherry, a hint of blackberry, rose and mineral. Excellent concentration, rich, warm, round, subtle acidity, good mineral presence and a long warm red fruit driven finish. This seems a bit softer and rounder with more red fruits. 97 pts.
