This is not a showstopper wine. There is nothing here that makes you sit up taller in your chair, cock you head to the side and say whoa. But it is really complete, detailed, complex Burgundy at a great price. Sometimes I think the pursuit of the exceptional gets in the way of enjoying the merely classic expression of excellent terroir. I enjoyed this a lot.

Something is off, it may be my palate, or the vintage, or ? Opened up a little but not enough tonight.
