April 21, 2024 - Belle texture, indeniablement, c‘est élégant, arrondi, soyeux, très Beaune séduisant et raffiné·
Néanmoins je m’ennuie rapidement car la gamme aromatique fanée, sur les epices et le sous-bois, sueur de cheval, manque cruellement de fraicheur, de fruit, de vie. Il est tombé dans le tertiaire/automnal sans garder ni griotte ni cerise, perdant en gourmandise et en charme: en fait il ne pinote guère plus, frustrant !
Bouteille fatiguée? Possible. En tout cas je ne le vois pas aller jusqu’en 2030 …1 person found this helpful Comment -

March 28, 2024 - Finished the bottle!
Still great, aerated for 2h to reach 15C. 17 is best.
Lovely, full fruit of Wild dark berries, earthy, salinity. Smooth tannins and acidity makes it juicy.
Quality and also easy to like.
Matched with chicken, cream, pasta with some dry tomatoes n basil on top. -

March 19, 2024 - Touch of brown in the colour. Smells clean, warm, hint of florals and spice.
Mature, but not old. Perfect time to drink.
14%, cork. -

February 10, 2024 - Coravin, a sample before dinner to see if it matches.
Very smooth, berries and seductive. Two hours later more complexity adult and grip. Excellent!
Choose to save it for later as it would not match with Mufflon naked potatoes and sardell. (SQN Dark Blosson did the job)
Drink now, keep 15-17, aerate for 90 min. Great! -
