  This does need decanting! Like was said in a previous note this has a stink to begin with but that can be aired off.
  
  Pretty nice stage in early evolution - not having tried it in any other stage. Has some stemmy tannins, raspberry, black tea- did not take careful notes and it wasn’t a very complex wine. A nice match with mushroom risotto and chicken breast.

  Much reduction. Even after 45 min, it still very much smells like sulfur and farmyard. Not a bad attempt on this vintage but expected more from a producer I really enjoy.

  Quatuor inédit en Côte de Beaune - Les Grands Jours de Bourgogne (Tonnellerie Damy - Meursault): Tasting, brief note. Ripe and seemingly lush start with moderate spice. Textures really emerge nicely middle-to-finish. Moderate weight and length, but certainly Good+ for its level.
  
  Nico wanted me to go through the 5 Volnay sequence here, even though I tasted this wine at DIVA yesterday. Worthwhile because I then appreciated the varied expressions of Volnay from the different cuvees.

  DIVA Burgundy Tasting (Maison Champy - Beaune): Tasting, brief note. Already bottled. Red and black cherry. Simple spice. Good fruit density and ripeness, but also slightly simple flavors. Good+ for its level.
