This is very elegant. Opening up nicely after an hour. I am fairly sure the 2010 had more body and nose when I last tasted in 2019, and so it may be lying low at the moment with more to give again later. But I love the elegance tonight. Showing some sous bois, but this is still very young. There is a freshness and juiciness to the fruit. Beautifully integrated acidity and liveliness. Super moreish. Good length. The tannins are soft and ripe... Oh... the nose on this wine... An couple of hours on... opening up more on the nose and palate. Fantastic wine.

91-94 AM: Tasting note: A pure and more refined nose that evidences much more emphasis on mineral influence on the beautifully vibrant flavors that possess a lacy and intensely stony character to the long, balanced and sneaky long finish. This is a distinctly understated effort with laser-like focus and precision.

Couleur pâle de vieux pinot. Le vin a une sève qui me rappelle Pommard au début, mais j'ai ensuite erré vers la Côte de Nuit. Le vin est séveux, avec l'élégance de ce finage très spécial et qualitatif de Pommard. Un vin fin et agréable, mon seul bémol est que je le plaçais sur un millésime plus léger, soit 2007. Manque un peu de vin pour ce grand millésime, mais ne chipotons pas, c'est un fort beau Pommard. 92 pts

La Paulée de Los Angeles - The Verticals (Maybourne Hotel - Beverly Hills CA): Vertical. Magnum. Elegant and wonderful balanced today with complexity in the background. Lots of red fruits here, so bright and charming now through the next 15+ years.

Perfekt utviklet. Høstløv, nydelig pinotfrukt, silke i flaske.
