  Tasted over 3 hrs, edition 5 (of 6) of 2014 Bertheau horizontal
  -med dark red mild clearing
  -expressive bright sweet red fruits
  -med+ acidity leaves a prominent finishing tang, med/med- weight focused tangy saline tart cherry, med/med- tannins slight warmth and a whisper of oak on the long finish
  -good complexity and power without weight though overall I slightly prefer the Charmes at this stage; I don't love this as much as I think I should

  Nicely done…clearly of a leaner vintage as this leans more savory in its flavor profile (I might have guessed 2010 if blind). There’s a bead of sweetness on the entry that lingers and plays well against the cranberry/sour cherry fruit and minerals.

  Atlanta Amoureuses & Monty Dinner: Really young and a bit tight. I don't mind drinking young wines, but this wasn't giving much tonight.

  If you are searching for a bottle to serve with a meal and some relatives who are not as crazy as you are in sipping Bourgogne I could honestly advice you to read the label carefully selecting your bottles, as I did not observe the whole label, accidently opened this one!
  Very restrained showing, both on the nose and on the palate, again commiting infanticide, some red berry, redcurrant, slightly brambleberry, dense but elegant, enormous tension and persistence, ending very long, because I did open a baby the acidity is in the foreground, just indicating what will happen in a decade++, after four hours decant a little more accessible, WAIT!
  Open this one in a decade with a decent decant, *(***- +?), 92+ potential

  Tasted side by side with the 14 Jadot Amoureuses, both took time to open up and were different wines an hour later. rounded red fruit, I found this more savory and plush whereas Jadot had more power/bite in the finish. I slightly preferred this
