Loved this w/ oysters last night. Fresh and clean after 5 years since disgorgement the wine is really at a great point. No oxidative notes and those sharp edges from a few years ago have softened. Pretty wine with good fruit. All from a zero dosage wine. Bravo Benoit!

Excellent showing against a pair of ‘93 GCs: de Vogue Musigny and Dujac Charmes. Decanted and poured the wine has excellent acidity and a core of dark red fruits. Lacks the depth of its GC counterparts, but, let’s face it, you can buy 5 bottles of this for one of the others. A long life ahead.

From magnum purchased at $42. Second bottle of a case. Sure, the wine is a little thin and not as precise or energetic as the 2011 Raveneau I had for lunch thé other day, but damn it is hard to find much better QPR than this. These will provide another decade of easy drinking pleasure.
