There was this hint of fresh melon and mint that was a combo I had never experienced before in wine (but we've been eating this a lot all summer so it must be on my brain)

No formal notes . Medium garnet Ruby. Quite floral still , light red fruits, cherry . Sweet fruits on the palate but quite tannic still , with refreshing and bright acidity . Quite a big wine on the palate , with darker fruits. Intense with good length . Starting to drink well from now , and over the next 10 years I would imagine

Yum. Starting out has a beautiful perfume - a bit of strawberry, wet towels - and the initial mouthful is a tart cranberry - silky and long finish. This will be fun to see how it opens but so far it's great!

Real tight and mineral. Very good and still needs more time. A little more backward than the last 05 Potel's I have had. Very very good built for the long haul.

After two hours in decanter still dark, dense, tight. Clearly quality fruit but no hints of pretty chambertin. One day...
