The nose is; big, dark and brooding. Fruit of, blackberries, black plum, plum, boysenberries, dark cherries, raspberries and hints of blueberries. Black cherry cola/licorice, touch of tar and anise, soft sandalwood, herbal notes, light, fresh mint, forest floor, dark chocolate, caramel, lavender and violets for days mixed with dark red florals.
The palate is delicious straight out of bottle open for hour or two. It is lush and rich. Fruit of, blackberries, black plum, plum, boysenberries, dark cherries, raspberries and hints of blueberries. Black cherry cola/licorice, touch of tar and anise, soft sandalwood, herbal notes, light, fresh mint, forest floor, dark chocolate, caramel, dry top soil, moist clay, soft and faint limestone minerals, lavender and violets for days mixed with dark red florals. The acidity is magnificent. There is great balance and length. The finish beautiful mixed ripe fruits, excellent florals and lasts minutes. Delicious!
This is showing well today and will be hard to resist opening now, but patience will be rewarded. This one still has not closed down in bottle yet.
This is the only one I bought. Hard to resist.

Vosne-Romanée: definitely expensive. But worth it. I mean, I don't drink VR often so every bottle carries a lot of expectations. This pinot is very fresh: fruity and herbal nose. Cherrie and black currant (nose and palate). This herbal note is hard to identify. Maybe a lemongrass? Because the finish is citrus (or spicy, I'm not sure). An interesting pinot noir.

I’m going to call this flawed. Muddy and muddled with astringent tannins. Most reviews point or bright red fruit but that was undetectable here. Oh well.
