This took such a long time to open but even when it did, it didn't do anything for me. This has to give more and I thought that the acids were too harsh. Not a terribly balanced wine.

Good to drink already now. Compared to the 2002 vintage, much more structured and also less fruity, which gives it a much more balanced drink. But I guess he has been at it for three more years now and his access to great grapes probably increased as well(but that is a mere guess)

I've had this a handful of times, and I think I probably liked it better a year ago or so, when it showed a tad more vibrancy. Nevertheless, a good bourgogne with saucy cherry fruit on the nose and palate.

Excellent bourgogne showing the structure and extra dimension that makes 2005 special. Drink now with some air or hold and enjoy down the road.

Classic red burgh ... some earthy funk on the nose, tart red cherry/cranberry n the palate. Vibrant acid. Can hold or drink.
