In style the opposite of the previous wine (2002 taupenot merme mazoyeres) Very polished mouhwise and nose wise Spice, berries, touch of flowers More fullness on the mouth and more dimensions on the nose and it would have been a classic

Decent Northern Rhone from a warm vintage. But, wait, isn't this supposed to be a 1er cru burgundy from a feminine village in a terroir-driven vintage? Who would have guessed? Frankly, the bottle says it all: big, heavy and ostentatiously ambitious. Clearly made by a young negotiant operation that needed to sell wine on the back of strong en primeur scores.

last bottle. Better than previous. More integration of lovely fruit and the oak and tannins. Soft, silky and smooth. Will now be daring and try one of my 07 Grand Cru's. Probably break my bank, very expensive!

Fresh and maturing red fruit with good+ weight and intriguing textures. Still slightly firm in the middle, detracting from the overall balance.
