In a great place. Dark red pomegranate notes, full, mineral texture, super pure. Medium-bodied, showing beautifully.

2007 Vieilles Vignes. Someone needs to teach me how the hell you cook boudin noir without the innards gushing everywhere. And yes I poked it with a fork beforehand. Lots of black cherry, sous bois, and roses on the nose and palate. Quite elegant.

Morgon V.V. 2011: still a bit young but already very promising. Strawberries, pepper, spices, tannins and acid still a bit high, hold for another few years.

My favorite of the Gang of Four. Lively without the funk, layers of earth, darkened red berries like starting with prime and ending with pomegranate
