Drinking really well right now (in my opinion). Rich dark fruit, cassis, spice, anise. Overall smooth. The wine got better the longer it sat in the glass.

This Burgundy is drinking really nicely now. We popped and poured. Great nose of red and black fruit, spice and barnyard. Smooth palate. Once it sat in the glass an hour or so, the spice and barnyard disappeared and the red fruit really stood out. It felt like it was on its way out....I would recommend drinking soon.

Maybe it was the company of friends, maybe it was the memories associated with this winery, maybe it was the filet mignon. Whatever the case, this wine was my WOTN (and we had some amazing wine). Opened just an hour before pouring. Very balanced. Delightful dark fruit on the nose and palate. Not too big....just right. I highly recommend drinking now.
