  Bouteille très bizarre. Un liège assez prononcé au nez, mais le vin est frais en bouche. Nous l‘avons bu.

  Sour cherry, wet earth and plummy fruits with acidity still holding this together. Negligible tannins and agree with the review below about being akin to a grand cru burg. Drink up.

  This wine is just sublime right now. Tannins have all mellowed and what’s left is just buttery dark red plums, mushroom and perfect acidity. Almost tastes like a grand cru burgundy in some respects. Wine is perfect now but has another 5 years. Let it breather 2-3 hours at least

  Stunning nose of florals, perfume and spice. There is clean and supple fruit that is almost lush on the palate. Some tobacco and herbs. Good concentration and acid. Tastes young. Could still smell and taste this wine long after it was gone. Really terrific.
