Good. Smooth, black cherry. Bought at Mitsukoshi for ¥5,000. — 5 years ago
Wow. The nose on this is beautiful. White flowers. Perfume. Intense but elegant. A 9.7 nose. Crushed seashell.
Palate is elegant tropical fruit. A bit hot at first but it blows off. Good deliciousness but not in your face.
Major crush on this producer. Such elegant wines. This vintage reminds me a bit of Rhône legend Marc Sorrel.

Nose: midseason cherries. Spice. Maybe cloves.
With air some savoriness, lilacs. More Burgundian.
Palate : sweet midseason cherries. Hint of licorice. Bracing acidity.
In an odd place now. Not showing it’s usual exuberance. Let’s see where it goes.
