September 21, 2014 - Light-medium ruby color. First pour was clear, but subsequent pours were cloudy from the heavy sediment in the bottle. Allowed to breathe 30 minutes in glass. Traditional style burgundy with evolved notes of pleasantly tart red fruit, animal fur, barnyard, musk, and earth. More rustic than refined. Best on first day; went downhill quickly under vacuum stopper.

May 1, 2007 - Excellent wine, drinking at peak now. Tasted blind in a flight with 3 other wines: a Mugnier Musigny, a Roumier Chambolle Les Cras and a Richebourg and it was not completely out of place. A little more rustic, with some poop and a little iron/blood, but really excellent burgundy especially for the price. I would happily drink this wine every day.
