This time it’s very spritzy, simple, lean and hard. Not improving in bottle?

Bit simple, dilute. Oak sticks out. Decent quaff.

Our French sommelier thought corked, we thought Gevrey that just needs some air. Give it a few hours to bloom.

2024/9. Basically similar to the last bottle, but a little more integrated and open from the start - wild red fruit, forest, iron.

Totally delicious. Cherries, mushroom, lots of red fruit in great balance and long finish. Lots of structure, would be interested to try an older vintage but this one blew the table away
