More fruit forward than most Burgundy I drink, but that is NOT a bad thing because it rocked with the meat board we had for dinner.

A bit New.Worldish, not as earthy as one might expect. Clean, unflawed, tannins well evolved.

Great Nuits with a very classical style, fresh, balanced, spicy, rich but not over extracted, an excellent bottle. Will be better in 3 to 5 years. We liked it a lot !!

The last of my Chezeaux 2006s, the first vintage I bought from him on release. This took a little time to open up (an hour or more after opening, without decanting), but once it did, it was really nice. Good earth and fruit (darker cherry) on the palate. The nose was a little dull even after opening, but with a good swirl of the glass, it got going. Enjoyed at a Covid dinner at home with a friend: farmed duck breast (D’Artagnan) cooked by sous vide (garlic, shallots, rosemary and some sherry) and seared on a cast iron skillet, sautéed mushrooms, and haricot vert with toasted almond slivers.
