  Fully mature nose with hay, barnyard, burned rubber, mushrooms, frozen strawberries, leather and vegetable stew. Light body, medium+ acidity, medium+ tannins, medium+ intensity and a fairly good length. A nicely structured and quite pleasant red Burgundy, though a bit too mature for my taste (more or less only mature aromas that ends up being a bit one dimensional). Drink now.

  Clear, pale intensity, garnet color.
  
  Fully developed nose with medium(+) intensity. Dark cherry, moldy strawberry, decaying leaves, stable floor, fresh herbs, spice box, cigar and cold coffee. Develops aromas of moist soil, bonfire and mushrooms.
  
  Medium bodied with medium, slightly green tannins and medium(+) acidity. Medium(+) intensity with flavors of moldy strawberry, mushrooms, moist soil, decaying leaves, old wood and coffee. Medium(+) finish.
  
  A bit hollow mid and slightly green on the palate but overall a decent mature Burgund. Some food will probably help. Drink now.

  Ljus, genomskinlig roströd färg
  
  Multna löv, övermogna jordgubbar, diskreta fattoner, lite mer stalliga mognadstoner
  
  Bra syra, medium längd, fortsatt bra frukt trots ålder
  
  Ett vin med en tydlig mognad. Gillar man inte mogna viner så skall detta undvikas.

  Clear light to medium red with just a little brick at the edge. Nose with ripe strawberries, a hint of oranges, pronounced animal notes including meat juice, and spice. Medium bodied, with fairly ripe strawberries on the palate, decent concentration of fruit, good acidity, spice, medium- tannins of which some feel like oak tannins. Not a heavyweight or very complex, and perhaps not at the level one could expect from this vineyard, but a quite decent mature Burgundy that sticks together fine and definitely is able to take some more cellaring (although it won't improve). 87 p.

  Healthy, moderate intensity, red cassis, lavendar and toasted almonds on the nose. Decanted and served immediately. Good acidity with moderate fruit intensity, cassis, orange zest, with a lasting finish and silky tannins. Revisited 2 hours after decanting and was still holding up nicely.
