  Belated birthday wine session at Wimborne. Tasted blind. Drank in Grassl Cru.
  Appearance is clear, medium intensity, ruby colour. Legs.
  Nose is clean, medium+ intensity, with aromas of dark red cherries, purple boysenberries, stony minerality, light earth. Developing.
  On the palate, dry, high acidity, medium alcohol (13.5%), structured medium+ tannins, full body. Medium+ flavour intensity, with flavours of dark red cherries, boysenberries, stony minerality, fresh earth, brambly spice. Very long finish.
  Excellent quality. Power with finesse. Young but already showing so well. I was guessing 2015 Gevrey Grand Cru. Turns out to be another stunning CSJ from Fourrier!

  So fresh and acidic. Fried flowers. Lots of gamey meaty character and good body. Concentrated fruits. Think it is already at full potential now.

  Great nose of red fruit. However, in my opinion, it still needs a few more years. Palate is still a little unresolved. This is even with a one hour decant as recommended below. Will check back in in a couple of years.

  Acker JK 51st birthday in NYC. Red fruited perfumes, spices and moderate Gevrey dirt, followed by red cherry inflected flavors. There is certainly a ood depth of flavors, the mouth is very elegant, just lacking a bit in density and sweetness, but that's 2014, not a generous vintage. Good lingering mineral finish at the end. Was much better right after opening than after 3 hours of air as it tightened a lot. This is a bit skinny to be at grand cru level but this is very good and in need of another 5 years to reveal its potential.
