Tasted over 2 hrs -dark red purple minimal clearing -low key red/black fruit earthy faint wood -med/med+ acidity provides a focused backbone to the med weight quite concentrated earthy black cherry with a bit of tar, med/med+ tannins give a mildly rustic feel -very good quality, still a little tightly wound

Very nice burgundy. Earthy with good underlying fruit and concentration. Still has good tannic structure but very delicious and complex with a bit of air now.

Chinese food tonight with a broad selection of sushi, peking duck and other various dishes made me think Burgundy….. I pulled the 2015 Aloxe-Corton 1er Cru “Clos Du Chapitre” Domaine Follin-Arbelet. This wine is spectacular. Cherry, tobacco, vanilla, caramel, earth, and dark chocolate on the nose… the fruit skates on the mid palate like an olympic gold medalist. Silky tannins just enrich the mouthfeel with just a hint of oak. -DD94

Tasty. Red and blue fruit. A bit of tannic spine. Fairly tart. Floral hints.
