Nose is a touch muddled at first, much in the style of a Meo Camuzet, but eventually opens into a more expressive floral and spiced black fruit bouquet. Dark, black berry and black cherry, cleaning up and becoming more floral and elegant. Palate is darker too, but juicy and powerful. Some oak polish hanging on. Overall I’d still say elegant, if up and down and dark and stormy at times. All of the blind guesses focused on Vosne as there is plenty of spice character. Good.

Her wines blow my socks off. Beautifully balanced with all in harmony. Still lots of time left. Slightly bricky color starting to appear, but nothing alarming.

PnP. This bottle was clearly past peak but still enjoyable. Deep red with some cedar and cinnamon. Medium bodied and showing some signs of age as the structure was a little thin.

Acker 2019/02 (Vaucluse): 1438/2630. Red fruit, cherry, sea, grilled meat, fresh floral. The smoothness, perfume and texture…just lovely. 95
