I like it but this is not Burgundy. Drank side by side with a village burg and the ripeness and oak of the Soliste was much more evident. It is a well made wine but there is this biting acidity at the very end of the palate that was off putting, like a sudden sour note / acidic bite. Would not buy this at the current prices.

Painfully young. Almost barrel sample but full of promise. Reminded me a bit, to a DRC Richebourg just as a style reference as to not offend the purists. Dark fruit with ton of spice, with a very floral nose. The palate still very basic and I regret opening this bottle.

Popped and poured curtesy of tlv. Spice, red fruit, florals and potpourri notes. Medium bodied with terrific red pinot fruit.

Cherry and spice with earthy undertones. Elegant. Long finish. Drinking nicely after having been double decanted about seven hours before service.

First bottle in a few years. Still quite strong, but I believe the setting may have caused a tiny decline in the score.
