Has a telltale whole cluster / heavy oak signature that could almost pass as cork. Nothing showy here, just the quiet confidence of wonderful grapes. Grows on you.

Still firm, young. Stunner. Plenty of iron and metallicism, sous bois, red fruits...damn near perfect

So perfumed and amazing on the nose. Just wanted to keep smelling this wine. The palate still showed burly and young with a lot if tannic structure, even after being opened for a couple hours. Perfect example of a '95 that is just showing itself.

Domaine Bizot lunch today hosted by their winemaker Thomas Berry. This is a producer who’s wines are virtually impossible to find. They have 9 plots with an average yearly production at 9000 btls. Whole cluster with some new oak, very small yields & small amounts of sulphur added. Their wines are lush & pure with no intervention showing purity of fruit, sweet spices along with floral notes. They are so delicious now you can drink them young but will reward long term cellaring. (Aka Liger Belair)
