    April 19, 2024 - Coravined 125ml (again) and much more open than 1 year ago, waited 40mins

    Still darker side of ruby vs other burgs but wouldn’t say purple
    Candied rapsberries, strawberries, roses, green tea cinnamon, touch of longan fruits coming thru (has to be my fav flavor lol)
    Palate fully matches the nose
    Satin texture
    Med+ finish

    Consistently elegant!!

    December 14, 2023 - Tasted over 2 hrs
    -med dark red
    -almost jammy cassis poached plum topped with intense wet stone
    -med acidity just enough to add some definition to the finish, med weight rather one dimensional ripe cassis with some stony minerality and just a touch medicinal, med/med- tannins
    -very ripe but not plodding

    June 8, 2023 - Very fresh, young. Light fruit upfront. Low acid. Paring with a pork tenderloin with a brown sugar/balsamic/garlic/cumin/chili powder/salt glaze.
    - one edit, the acid came out over time and the wine was incredibly balanced

    April 23, 2023 - Fresh strawberry on the nose then fills in with cola notes. Great fruit and acidity on palate. A great wine for a Bourgogne. Unfortunately I don't have more bottles to find at how well will it age further.

    Darker side of ruby vs the other burgs
    Green tea leaves, rapsberries and longan fruit
    Palate not as amazing as the nose (still great), good tannins
    Med finish

    Another elegant Bourgogne
