Tasted blind: nose and palate were meaty, spicy with touch of mint and soil; a bit tannic and unevolved yet. Not among my favorite producers. Merely good for a Beze.

This is just starting to show more secondary characteristics but holding onto quite a bit of dark/somber fruits, minty herbs, beet root/earthy type of nuances with smoked meats. Dense, rich with tannins that appear to be integrated (slowly) with the dark fruit. Grand Cru power is definitely intact and this should continue to really improve. Lots of upside potential, yet!93.

Still youthful. Medium bodied- cherry liqueur and raspberries. Tannins have softened over the years but still lots of life ahead of it. Was expecting more complexity to be honest- a linear wine with no peaks or troughs.

Fruit aroma. What I think of when I think Burgundy Pinot Noir.
