Stunning on the nose. It was more earthy and spicy than red fruitish, especially compared to the "Clos de la Roche" from Gerard Raphet we had next to it, which was an absolute bomb of red fruits, in particular framboises. I prefered this wine by far.
Drink or keep.

91-94 AM: Tasting note: Generous wood fights a bit with the otherwise very fresh red berry fruit aromas that evidence an intense earthiness that continues on the equally intense, structured and muscular flavors that just ooze a sense of power on the beautifully long and palate coating finish. That doesn't have the sheer depth of the best of these grand crus but this is really very, very good all the same.

Good, quite sweet red fruits on the attack. High acidity, softening tannins. Medium finish, straightforward. Very young, wait 10 years.

Perhaps we didn't give this enough air-time or perhaps it's in a dumn phase - but this was pretty muted and a little green.
