Tuesday, March 10, 2020 - Dinner at Tonny's (Tonny Restaurant): Lovely again, this was such a nice Gevrey village. The nose had a 2009 ripeness in its exuberant aromas of cherries and red berries laced with spice, earth and a bit of meatiness, this wreathed in a lovely floral perfume. Really nice. The palate was at a beautiful place now. Rich and ripe, with lovely layers of cherries, berries and a little bit of earth and spice, but also beautifully pure, transparent and impeccably balanced, with fresh acidity and wonderfully shaped tannins, all this leading into a lipsmacking finish of sake cherries infused with a bit of warm spice. Chewy, pure and delicious, this was a wonderful village. I thought it was a 1er Cru blind. Even better than the last bottle I had a couple of years back - really hitting its stride now.
