Garnet with significant bricking. The nose is all savoury with umami, barbecue meat, and smoke. The palate is again dominated by savoury meatiness. Soy. Very elegant. Classic burgundy - bold and powerful flavours with ethereal weight. — 3 months ago
Slightly deeper ruby compared to the Gevrey , with quite wide garnet rim . Denser more closed nose , darker fruits , cassis , dark cherry , touch of baking spice . On the palate quite taut and refined with more tannin , more mineral with a dark cherry , cassis notes . More noticeable tannin , polished but present, good fresh acidity and good length . This needs a little more time 2 or 3 years perhaps and will last well a further 5 -8 . A step up in complexity and persistence from the Gevrey 1er Cru . — 3 months ago

Pop and pour. An enticing deep ruby red color. On the nose: brambly cherry, floral, cloves, touch of funky earth. Taste: dark cherry, cedar, minerals, planting soil, baking spice with just a little tannic kick. Nice solid Burg with a better score to come. — 3 months ago
