2001 vintage. At Chez Simon in Flagey-Echezeaux. Medium golden hue. On the nose, stone fruit and almond profile, hazelnut and honeyed. On the palate medium acidity and body - silky and slightly oily. Good concentration and long, but not overly so. Very refined. Slightly disappointing relative to expectation. Drink now until 2026+. With air, mineral wet stone and honey character to the fore. Suggest opening for a day before drinking. — 10 years ago

Boyz Raveneau tasting. From a very well kept bottle with a high fill. Light to med gold/straw color. More closed than the others. Rich and viscous in the mouth. Some heat in terms of the presence of alcohol. With air this really opened up. After 3 hours this was singing. — 11 years ago

2001. Cooler vintage that is slowing grace in ageing. Still lively acid with strong primary fruits. Showing hints of honeysuckle and acacia tones with air. Fascinating wine, showing the grace and tension of great charging — 11 years ago
Really a nice little wine. Lots going on. 2010 is a great Bordeaux vintage it seems for little wines like this. — 12 years ago
