Did drink it over the course of a couple of hours. Started with a very reserved nose and did gain some momentum after probably two hours but kind of faded again afterwards. A nice drink with wildboar and mushrooms but definitely not a stunner. Not on GC level but at least bought on a decent pricing level. Not much excitement here. Will drink my last bottle in two years but have some reservations if this will improve.

Decanted for 30 minutes. Paired with rack of lamb. Ruby colour, slightly fading on the edges. Subtle red/blue fruit background. Nose was not there at beginning but slowly started to show itself as dinner progressed. Dusty/Dry short finish. I was hoping for more but it is what is. $60 for a GC is not bad but it really punches at 1er Cru level. The food helped. I don't see this evolving into a "wow" stage but it was enjoyable none the less. I have some 2017's also in cellar, I have higher hope for those.

lively with some reluctant black cherry and mushroom, but a bit thin and lean overall
