  Medium red color. Aromas of black fruits, underbrush and spices. Ripe, nicely structured fruit in the mouth with excellent depth and length. Generous with good tension on the palate. Though still not at peak, delicious now with the roast duck and rabbit at Elwood Restaurant.

  Somewhat indifferent volnay IMO. Tart with a feeling of chalky tannin at opening resolved into a plain wine experience with limited bottom. Had a moment of generosity, playing off the tarragon in the sauce for a pan roasted chicken, but otherwise nothing special in this bottle (or the last).
  
  Not sure I get burghounds 90 point award on this.
  
  More time?
