Tastes like baby Vosne Romanée to me! So much asphalt aroma and earth I imagine it's a baby Reignots--perhaps young replanted vines? Dark fruit is here but it plays second fiddle to the massive earthy elements. Heat sticks out on the midpalate a touch, but doesn't prevent this from being a monstrous red with an accumulative aroma that brings vinyl to mind. Curious to see where a short term aging curve would take this. Sebastien gleefully acknowledges this is his finest Bourgogne ever. Even with its flaws, Bourgogne should not be able to achieve these aromatic heights! — 11 years ago
Nicely balanced. Ripe fruit. — 12 years ago
A 2010 I tasted at the Château with Sebastien. A nice little Wine for 5€! Although the Château is currently in the Touraine AOP, it will soon be in Chinon, where it geographically belongs. — 11 years ago

2009. A little oxidized but still good. Would be a good accompaniment to oysters. — 10 years ago
