Big, burly, warm and primary. Super extracted and concentrated, very juicy. Very dark and wild, almost New World in the sweetness of its fruit, tons of spice balance this nicely. So intense, needs time to calm down, tons of room for improvement.

Such a stunning wine. I have drunk a bottle every decade on its anniversary since 1999. I suspected it may have fallen. It proved me wrong. Such vibrant fruit, a fine line of acid with poised tannins, incredible harmony. An incredibly intoxicating perfume given an hour to breath. Personality+. Next up the 1978 which always battles hard to top the 1979 contrary to popular wisdom around the 2 vintages.

Very nice. Had in London at fabulous La Petite Maison in Mayfair. Worked well with Dover sole and veal chop.

Beautiful! A Cote de Beaune red that is world class, 2012 perfect to drink. Layered, balanced, who would have thought this could match a beautiful Cote de Nuit?

2011 Domaine Bernand Moreau et Fils 1er Cru La Cardeuse Chassagne-Montrachet Monopole - Very fresh nose of fresh-picked cherries, plums, hints of cocoa, fresh-picked mint, and subtle hints of cola and white pepper. Juicy with the fresh-picked cherries, fresh pomegranates, and hints of orange pith, gushing on the mid-palate with cranberries and blueberries, finishing with cocoa, light sandalwood, and peppercorn. Medium Tannic structure.
