Birthday Dinner Featuring Bonneau du Martray and the Very Best of Chambolle-Musigny (The Bristol - Chicago IL): In Amoureuses flight, alongside Groffier '10. Black cherries and berries throughout with braised meat spice and rare meat. Big and bold, this goes on and on, but never seems to give us 100% of its full potential. By far the most backward of the flight, needing the most further cellar time, despite having been opened 4+ hours prior with an hour in a decanter. I will hold my remaining bottles until 2030 or later.

Tight, even after two hours decant. Tasted along with 09. 09 was better this day (97 pts vs. 96). The nose and sweetness of the fruit in the 2009 was better. The 2010 had great structure and tannins, which in my opinion will help it be a better wine in 5-10 years.

This needs quite a lot of time. Opened our bottle at 19.00 and finished our dinner at 24.00 and this wine kept developing the whole time. Light, everything in place, extemerly balanced and very good, but maybe missing that "wow-feeling".

Right away the nose pulls you in. Tons of rich cherry stone, raspberry liquor and meaty earth. Sixty second long finish. This is an acid lovers wet dream. I can't wait to retry this in ten years.

Wow wine for sure! Such purity and poise combined with huge intensity and the signature never-ending finish of the great Vogue's. Still very tight in the mouth though. Screamingly good and should only improve for the next twenty years! 96++
