RC visit, 7/20/16, he liked it more than Corton Hospice '95 because it surprises as classic Nuits red even may not be 1er cru. I liked it but thought Hospice had something unfamiliar to my more limited experience. This has good nose that's floral with hints of earth, great balance on palate that i called elegance but RC says is note so as elegance defined as quality you need to search out because it's somewhat hidden and obvious. More true for Hospice. Finish very pleasant and long.
