FWS Exam Event: Something must be wrong with my palate. I often seem to prefer the lesser rated vintages. Last year when I was in Beaune I often preferred the '14 over the more heralded '15 & '16. I often prefer '06 over '05 as well. '13 was not a vintage that is supposed to be great, but this wine was wonderful. Already showing secondary aromas. Bright red fruit, with a ton of Organic earth aromas. Like a fall forest floor. Tannin was medium, just enough to add a little depth, and acid was elevated. This makes me want to track down more '13 Bourgogne...
