An interesting counterpoint to the Graillot Crozes from the same year. It has more life to it still, more body, more fruit, but it is at the same time simpler and less charismatic. I thought I had more than one bottle left and now I'm wishing I did

At its peak. Decant for at least half an hour before enjoying though. Bramble nose follows through on palate but the tannins have softened yet acidity still relatively high. Decanting gives the fruit a chance to round things out beautifully
