Highly perfumed, mid-weight, elegant and open-knit. Complex aromatics of dried flowers, blue fruits, smoked meats and musk. It is silky in the mouth with a sensual feel and deliciously sweet, plump fruit. It is impeccably balanced and absolutely ready to go.

Truffle, sous bois, mushroom, savory meatiness, sweet and sour plum and cherry. Good mouth feel and texture, it flows effortlessly, silky smooth as a great winemaking skill, every element is well integrated, harmony. Long, sweet and at the very end a touch bitter greenness which is the vintage character I was told. Drinking at its peak now and unlikely to improve. Drink up.

Brooding, rootish , stewed red autumnal fruits , sous bois and leather. A mixed bag of chambolle, morey and gevrey I thought. Mid weight on the palate with a silky smoothness to the delivery.

Aromatically this wine was gorgeous. Continuously shifting with complex aromas. The palate was a bit of a let down. I love structure in a wine, but it seemed to dominate this wine tonight. I'm being critical here, the wine was super good, but it was Rousseau after all. I guess I was hoping for a bit more, but the nose was fantastic.
