  The wine was all there but on top was this kind of musty / sour apple character - an aroma I associate with TCA but the fruit wasn't stripped away. Over time it didn't get worse but nor did it dissipate. Most vexing.

  Drinking very well. Still youthful with soft cherry and raspberry on the palate. A classic Burgundy.

  Youthful dark ruby in color. Aromatically a bit shy and takes time to show dark red plums, cherries, dried florals, light spice and soil tones. Light to medium bodied palate shows silky red tart-sweet plums and cherries, medium acidity, fully resolved tannins and a lingering spice and earth tinged finish.

  Excellent premier cru. No decant. Ready to go peak drinking. Nose is of strawberry jam, cherries and crandberries with load of secondary features truffle shavings, peppercorns, forest leaves and hints of tobacco. Palate is juicy red fruit, medium to full bodies, spicy oak, fine dusty tannins coating the tongue, fine acidity with long and spicy finish.

  Fabulous cork, minimal infiltration, slightly soft, but withstood extraction by corkscrew. Medium burgundy(what else?) color. Confident that wine is intact. First sip. Fantastic fruit concentration. Earthy also. But then as quickly fruit receded and as reported by others, then became tannic. But even so still beautiful and oddly delicate due to refined acidity, which means not so crisp as to be fierce, and more like an undercurrent. The acidity is really nice in this. So odd, small sips reveal wonderful fruit and acidity but larger sips and fruit distant. What did impress me is that I had this over 5 days, and the fruit got incrementally better each day except the last, where it held. Relayed my experience to a wine manager and said he never heard of a burgundy wine displaying this trait. Some slight sediment in my last small glass on the 15th.
