nice nose but very disappointing in the mouth on first opening. harsh. i thought i am stuck with another 23 bottles and i will give them to my 18 year old boys to party on at university. after a 3 hour decant everything had opened up and softened down - lovely burgundy - well worth the wait. relieved. if you have any decant for 3 hours before tasting.probably drink over the next year or so. you will enjoy with food.

Quite a bit harsher and more tannic than the 1er cru Champeaux. Very good though, a keeper.
