Worth the wait. Not sure what others are drinking. Matured but young, balanced aromas, fruit. Well integrated tannins. Does lack some structure but it may come in time. Sorry nothing more. At dinner with wife and it paired well with her fish dish and with my Chateaubriand.
Nez complètement fermé, qui ne s'ouvrira jamais complétement, même le lendemain et le surlendemain. Bouche maigre, bien équilibrée mais sans aucune intensité aromatique... C'est un peu le néant pour un Grand cru. Un 2011 peut-il se refermer à ce point ?

YOUNG, but VERY approachable now. Fantastic nose of terroir we expect from fine Burgundy. While somewhat reticent in its nose and flavor profile ALL the parts were there, great red fruit, balance, integrated tannins, acidity, and more. Definitely has a bright future over the next 5-10 years. Would like to say more but it actually paired amazingly well with sole meuniere. So, dinner with my wife was more discussion our home renovations while being constantly interrupted by great wine :-). Only drank now because i have 5 remaining in my cellar and can't wait to drink as it progresses.

Robe un peu plus prononcée que pour leur Beaune 1er cru mais peu extraite tout de même. A évidemment besoin d'air après ouverture, le nez est complexe, et forme déjà un bouquet. On y décèle des petits fruits rouges, une pointe animale, un bouquet d'épices chaudes, c'est concentré et bien net. En bouche, c'est évidemment jeune mais joliment structuré avec des tannins maîtrisés, c'est à suivre, il est trop tôt bien évidemment.
