This is really in a great place right now. Drank over several hours with seared duck breast and mushroom risotto. Earthy with bright red fruits and cooking spices. A medium to full and satisfying mouth feel. Polished tannins and a wonderful finish. Can’t wait to see where it ends up tomorrow. No hurry but hard to believe it will get much better.

This was really pretty tonight with lots rich, ripe, penetrating red fruit, an abundance of earthy, sous bois notes, abit of an animale undertone and perhaps some Asian spice. I think the mouthfeel, while intense, is pretty light on its feet and I also think that I disagree with some of the previous notes that suggest that this wine is on a downward trajectory. To my tastes, this is just hitting its stride and there seems to be enough underlying structure to carry it forward for a least another 5-10 years. Really nice in a way that only burgundy achieves for me.

I rated this higher last year. While still a wonderful burgundy, the fruit is fading, so I would drink up!

Starting to show its age. Still a nice burgundy, but drink up!
