  December 12, 2021 - still young: dark fruit and light scents of spices, in the mouth 2008 is shining through with an acidity that still needs some more years to fully integrate. Tasted alongside the 2005 which was a powerhouse even needing more years in the cellar!

  December 7, 2020 - Too light fruited & lacking harmony, unusual for this domaine. Slightly better than the Ruchottes which added a layer structure/austerity

  October 31, 2020 - En majestetisk og komplett vin som har det meste. En vin for nytelse heller enn analyse. Kan bare si at den var den beste 08 smakt.

  August 25, 2020 - The Triple Threat "165" Birthday Bash (65/60/40) (Minikahda Club, Mpls): Medium dark red color. PNP, drank a glass over 90 minutes plus. This was a little more brooding and introspective for me tonight. Nice darker cherry fruit, clay, tart cherry, some dark fruit too, powerful, spiced, more dense and full on the palate, anise. This seemed like it was just coming into its window and would benefit from a good bit of air. Flighted with an '06 DRC 1er Duvalt-Blochet that had more finesse and complexity tonight. A very nice bottle that will likely be better in a couple years.

  August 25, 2020 - Thank you Jimmy, I loved this tonight! Another fabulous blt to celebrate Davids soon to be 60, my 65 and Jimmy's milestone 40. One of the things I love about Jimmy is his old soul combined with youthful energy and always good nature. Love Jimmy and his dad Leo! This wine was superb tonight and I'm kicking myself that I never bought any of these myself when for a short few years we could source them dirt cheap. We since lost our local distribution and the prices have soared beyond the reach of mere mortals. I'd also recently had an absolutely killer 06 Ruchottes on my birthday night with Nita. So this was singing tonight. Offering up forest floor, spice and dark fruit on the nose. The aromas carried through to a rich yet energetic palate where the fruit was sublime. Plenty of dark raspberry, mineral, licorice and more forest floor. Very Vosne and very very classy stuff. Thanks Jimmy!
