February 26, 2022 - Just a quick note, as the company was too good for anything analytical. This bottle is in perfect condition and at the top of its potential. Manages to combine elegance and a fair bit of opulence in a uniquely Burgundian way. Perfect with lobster, the combination creating a moment of bliss.
I would not wait much longer though, as I can't see what could possibly be gained, and the wine became noticeably deeper in colour with time in the glass. Not a whiff of oxidation at this stage however, and I am quite unforgiving on that matter.
An outstanding success, and an occasion to be remembered, with thanks to the generous donor. -

August 28, 2019 - Another one of these, fully mature, best to drink up!

April 4, 2019 - Eudemis’ note seems to hit all the high points. Would add that this shows a plateau of maturity and drinkability.. Baked ripe apple and a citric pungency on nose and palate.

July 30, 2018 - Medium golden color raised anxiety, but the nose was merely "full term" showing complex mature qualities (very well described by Eudemis in his note below). The combination of classy richness and the adept touch of that Drouhin acidity that I always find in their wines, makes this wine great for drinking now (and not for keeping too much longer!)

June 22, 2018 - Color already advanced but no sign of oxydation at all, quite oaky, with very pleasant smoky, toasty flavour, a very enjoyable bottle
