  Still very good. Light on the palate. Had with lamb at a French Bistro. Dark fruit and earthy tones. Highly recommend

  Very pleasant , soft drinking with nice lenght , a little odd on back taste but it evolved , would have benefited from an earlier decant

  A very pretty bouquet and what the attack lacks is quickly overcome by a bushel of sweet multifaceted sulty fruit. An hour’s air serves this well.

  Noticed that there was some seepage from the capsule, so opened her up. Interestingly, the cork appeared pristine. Decanted a few hours and tasted -- far too much fruit (and a little flat) -- so waited until day two to assess.
  
  Today -- spicy stony peppery black fruit on both the nose and palate. Great zip and energy. Excellent potential. Likely needs another 2-3 years of cellar time. No rush here.

  This has a deeper cast and a little more richness than the Clos des Chenes, but it's another totally classic effort, well-defined with stony minerality and already past its primary fruit. It's not quite as refined as the '05 vintage of this was, but it may be a little deeper. Nevertheless it still has the producer's typical lightweight touch, with a deceptive amount of muscle underneath, the initial plushness only receding to reveal its structure as you toss it around.
