As happens with Bize wines (at least of this era), they can go into and out of closed and open phases. This wine has closed down considerably8 since last year, although there's plenty of potential showing in the deep dark fruit.

Superb bottle with complex red fruits, a little dark, some stem/earth tones, medium-weight, Beaune-side roundness. Early first stage maturity. Cellared sine original release.

Bize is the real deal. This comes screaming out of the gate on the nose with awesome bloody, meaty aromatics, showing some secondary development. The palate is on-point too - concentrated, definitely some development but with sticky tannins still. Black fruits. No harm in holding but I loved this now.

Charming mid weight burg, showing the good vintage character nicely. Red fruited nose and a more earthy palate.
