Curious to try one of these young as I haven't loved several 2020s; this was definitely not one of them; young on the nose, but explosive ripe cherries and raspberries along with floral notes; hints of orange pekoe tea and a touch of petrichor; the palate is dense and packed for a village bottling, but in a good way and the balance is spot on. Really impressive and while I will plan to let the rest of mine sit, it isn't a crime to try one now.

Day 2: A little more secondary notes of musky perfume and underbrush. Darker fruit this time. I loved how the wine transitioned from a sexy candycane beast to a more brooding farmyard animal. 92
Overall score ovee two days: 92.5

Day 1: Coravined two glasses. Took a while to open, then …bam! Loads of concentrated cherry and red fruit with a long finish. So pure and concentrated…the after taste still there hours after. Like chewing on cherry candy, reminds me of a Drouhin 1er Chambolle on steroids. Let’s see what tomorrow brings solid 93+ for today.

Nice vintage for this wine.
Has the stuffing to go for decades.

Noch sehr jung, aber alles ist schon erkennbar da - tolle Spannung und Struktur, trink sich von allein, sehr fein
