Spicy on PnP, evened out w air. She’s too smart for me. — a month ago
2012 vintage. Opened two bottles and decanted both. Merest hint of sed in both. Raspberry/cranberry nose with menthol, earth and those berries riding shotgun. Really integrated currently and an absolute pleasure to sample a 1er Cru at the top of its game-at lunch. Should hold steady in this phase another 7-8 years. That’s good news since we’ve got two bottles left. Don’t suspect they’re long for this world tho. 10.17.25. — 3 months ago
Solid Nuits value at the new Fleurette. — 17 days ago
Popped and poured for Thanksgiving dinner. No V.A detected on nose or palette. Had with non-traditional Thanksgiving dinner of duck cassoulet, and it was a wonderful pairing. Lovely initial cherry notes on the palette followed with anise, woodsy herbs, and hints of leather with nice and smooth mouth feel. Tannins are well-integrated. Finish was long and beautiful. — a month ago
At 17 years, fully mature. Ethereal with PnP, changing over a two hour dinner, first adding red fruits and then drying tannins. — 4 months ago
Pure and lifted. Black cherry fruit and underbrush. Pretty and starting to drink well. — a month ago
