  November 3rd, 6th & 8th, 2023
  
  Sealed with vacuuvin and refrigerated between services. The wine remained aromatically the same from the 3rd to the 8th with signs of decline at the end of the glass on the 8th. Sturdy stuff.
  
  This is the first pinot noir I’ve had with more than a decade of age. However, I never would have guessed from this bottle.
  
  Generous from the get-go with aromas of leafy raspberry, aniseed and fleeting teases of allspice. The palate is equally intense with lively acidity and fine, filmy tannins that do have a slight bite. The finish is long and evolves to reveal some black tea and cola.

  Good acidity and fruit; balance, lively freshness, moderate length. Opened nicely after 60-minute decant. Not closed; forthcoming and ripe.

  This is one seriously top-notch Beaune, and more impressive than the 2009 version, although both are incredible values (especially at the sale price J.J. Buckley had them for). This needed no time to get in the zone (no CO2 to shake off this year) and just offered an expansive, satiny canvas of pure, voluptuously proportioned red pinot fruit with no hard edges and a polished, shiny veneer. It got grittier and more structured towards the end of the bottle but there was a long window when this was just flawlessly composed.
