Still youthful but starting to open up and was nicely expressive. Dark red fruits and a potpourri of spice notes. Palate was rather concentrated and complex but without any sense of heaviness. Didn't get the since this came a particularly warm or ripe vintage given the balance. Slight oak and toast on the back end but well balanced.

Intensive Nase, rote und dunkle Beeren, präsentes Holz, subtile Würze, steinig kühl, Arabica Kaffee, Minze, etwas Laub, dennoch mit warmem Ausdruck. Im Gaumen von grosser Eleganz, was für eine Balance, alles ist hier an seinem Platz, der Wein hat Klasse, Rasse, Präzision, die Frucht ist da, das Holz dezent, perfekt verwoben. Im Abgang mit sehr guter Länge, dezente Krautigkeit, Sauerkirschen. Sensationell schon jetzt, mit Reserven. 2023 bis 2035+

I’m going to bat for the 09 Anne Gros Clos Vougeot. Lots of shade is thrown at CV, but Anne Gros should be exempt. This is a real delight, drinking beautifully now, full of black and red cherry, red spice, hints of anise and cinnamon. Gorgeously textured yet fresh. Beautifully long. No 09 problems, no CV problems in my book.

Huge big ripe and intense.
Lovely drinking now, but this seems ageless.
Some oak, but more than enough fruit and intensity to cover.

Third best red on the night. Seemed more serious with more blackish fruit than the rest but remained airy.
