  This has always had lovely material behind it but appears to still be a bit shy and reclusive. Very pure and sweet aromas of cherry and strawberry mixed with very impactful spicy/herbal components of clove, sage and thyme framing floral tones of dried rose petal. Not showing the focus and clarity (a bit young still) but succulent, juicy and finishing with decent length.

  Initially very medicinal nose (fellow taster called it cold medicine); then very vegetal. Eventually settled down a bit but I hardly think it a representative bottle. Likely some type of infection.

  Very tight today and entirely primary but shows textbook strawberry, red cherry fruit that deepens with time and becomes sweeter. Ultra pure and refined with bit of plum and violet notes that fly in and out of the foreground. With more time comes about sweet cherry liqueur style fruit that still shows a reserve. Juicy and fresh on the palate and while not showing any real texture today, the linear juiciness is fun to drink and keeps you coming back for more. Floral, pure and juicy but with real quality, vivid fruit that shows lots of class and potential

  From tank. Much easier to drink than the village Chambolle, this has a pretty floral aroma, more sweetness of fruit, and much finer, less abrasive tannin.
