Purple hue to the rim, not showing much age. Nice nose with notes of blackberries, cooked cherries, rhubarb, some wood and dark earth. Rich and hot in the mouth. Big structure. Heavy. Warm. Atypical experience for burgundy, but typical with the 03 vintage.

May 3rd, 2019Nice tawny color. Great nose from the get go. Bright candied red fruit, spice, dark soil, cedar wood, and rhubarb notes. In the mouth it’s smooth with integrated tannins and softened acidity. Voluptuous. Another 96 red burg that is ready for consumption but has the stuff to last for years to come.

Feb 8th, 2019Drinking well. On the attack is vivid and showed some meatiness. Shows some iron, I thought wa Gevrey. Strong and solid jonwong, but the mid to finish loses the class of a top producer. Still lovely.
