This is a really nice village Auxey with juicy, earthy, somewhat rustic, midweight red fruit, subtle floral notes and chalky tannins. Drinking well almost immediately after opening. Delightful!!

Tight and unforgiving but with good substance and potential. Meaty midpalate. A little stroppy at present and the undoubtedly lovely (albeit faint) fruit is strangled by clunky tannins. Not in a good place now but I am optimistic this will develop a bit more charm and finesse with 5 yrs bottle age.

An excellent village level Auxey. Succulent and juicy red fruit, floral and almost sauvage notes before a savory mineral tug on the finish. Well delineated with a bit of flashiness for this energetic wine. A very textural and gregarious burgundy with a full mid-palate. Tannin is fine and a bit invigorating, but this round but balanced wine and no reason to wait. Really good QPR at ~$50. Drink over the next 5.

Lots of energy here, a touch of rusticity, and a prominent granite cherry fuzz finish. Still a little tight perhaps

三天,第一天,不太open。splash decant 几次。有一种明显的人工东西的味道,闻口感偏黑,偏重。第二天,splash decant 几次,没太大变化。第三天,气味口感有强烈的酸味,偶尔有点pinot 水果,没啥涩度。实在不怎么样。
