  Décanté 2h avant dégustation vu le côté réduit bien présent dans les cuvées du domaine.Robe évoluée.Le bouquet est peu intense,il faut vraiment remuer pour dégager quelques arômes de fruits rouges et de sous-bois.La bouche par contre offre davantage de plaisir avec un bon équilibre.La struture est clairement décevante pour un grand cru et pour ce millésime réputé.C'est niveau premier cru !!!! Longueur moyenne.Cela confirme que ce grand cru est le moins coté de la Côte de Nuits,sans aucun doute possible.Franchement déçu par cette bouteille.Je constate également tout le contraire par rapport à l'avis de Tay Jean de2021 sur le nez et la bouche.Comme quoi....Bouteille conservée dans ma cave impeccable depuis 1992 !!!

  Medium garnet in colour. Very nice colour without cloudy or sediments. Bottle in good condition except for damaged label. Pronounced nose intensity with notes of dried red cherry, dried cranberry, tea, earth and wet forest. The nose I will give it perfect 100 or close but on the palate, it was more muted. Nose > palate. It was medium body with medium acidity and tannin. The tannin was smooth on the mouthfeel and feel light. It was always an enjoyable to drink vintaged red Burgundy and most time there can be hit and miss. Drank it at a restaurant hence provenance and quality is assured. 1990 is a strong vintage, not sure whether this wine can still hold; maybe the bigger format will. If not do drink up and no decanting.
