Good bottle, interesting comparing impressions from 4 years ago. Agree with last tasters and their spot-on observations: a bit of funk, deep fruit almost plum like, evolved and cranberry too, leather, sous-bois. Drank with older village and 1er cru red Burg, and could immediately tell the intensity of this wine. It has evolved over the past few years. It would have been fun to have more, for sure, to keep watching evolve further. Thumbs up.

Lots of secondary aromas, sous-bois and funky mushrooms. Velvet texture, plummy red fruit and nice acidity. A pleasure. Alas, this was my last bottle of a case. Farewell my good friend... parting is such sweet sorrow.

Lot of burgundy 'funk' , animale and secondary scents. Some thought some brett, but I didn't think so. Nice palate feel and balance. Very enjoyable for most, but a few did not like at all.

Another crowd-pleaser.Oodles of ripe berries jumping out of the glass, a hint of sous-bois and mushrooms. Lovely mid-palate, with a velvety mouthfeel and great balance of acidity, fruit and tannins. An elegant wine that is not overly intellectual and very enjoyable.
