This was too much fun. 20 plus years old but still as fresh as a daisy. Or close enough to it at least.
Dark purple with just a bit of rust at the edges. Initially pretty closed in but when it opens it it blossoms. Mushrooms and earth with some cedar and herbs. There’s funk, glorious funk shining here. It doesn’t take dominance but it is rather lovely.
After decanting for a number of hours this is finally ready to enjoy. And what is this exactly? It’s perfectly fine, budget friendly Burgundy that over delivers. There’s a good core of fruit here with wild strawberries and stewed plums. Cloves, dirt, and cranberry juice. The finish is long with muted spice. A real joy to taste.

2018 was a troublesome vintage and a test for being a good producer. This is how I found Hudelot-Noëllat. The new vintage is different, especially in terms of acidity and volume. Beautiful bouquet: cherry, milk chocolate and wet leaves. Fresh, juicy, well-balanced, round, elegant, but still too young. — 2 years ago
