This might be past its prime, very little fruit and high acidity. Decanting is not advised as the first glass was the best. Not a a bad wine but not a good one either.

Content d'avoir conservé l'une de mes bouteilles. Un vin encore bien vibrant et savoureux a boire. Les petits fruits rouges sont biens présents autant sur le nez qu'en bouche. Des vins que nous avons tendance à boire trop jeune!

Sorry to see the last of this case. At ten years, it held up well but the peak drinking window probably closed two to three years ago. Ten minutes in, the wine really opened, with beautiful dry cherry flavors. After an hour, there was not much left.

Tres content d'avoir conserve cette bouteille. Les fruits sont encore beaux et c'est tellement agreable a boire. Aucun interet a attendre cette bouteille plus longtemps. Rapport quàite /prix exceptionelle.

decanted 6 hours. great acid, and tannic structure in a similar vein to the '09 & '10 Pavelot Savigny Les Beaune burgundies I had recently albeit with darker bluish fruit. I don't know if the difference is due to the vintage or producer.
Day 2: the wine developed stronger and more complex aromas today with a faint odor of sweet asian sauce...hoisin or teriyaki. The strong acid and tannin has not mellowed, but with the richer aromas this wine is delivering a more complete drinking experience today
