Had some interesting moments but a bit disjointed. Peeling layers you hit nice fruit and flowers with the occasional astringent harsh dead tobacco leaf. Weird but with personality. Maybe a few years will help it come together. Drank over three nights. — 5 years ago
Love this wine. Lots of cassis and even notes of chocolate. Smooth, easy to drink. — 5 years ago
Pours a lovely golden color, pineapple nose, smooth on the palate before a tingle comes in that lingers, good level of butteriness with a lighter finish. Yum! — 7 years ago

From a lieu dit surrounded by Gevrey. Definitely young but with a couple hour decant quite enjoyable and accessible. Tons of sweet cherry on the nose; aromatically really quite intense. Full on the palate, get more tannin than I was expecting, but very nicely balanced by a lot of acid. Enjoyed it with a roast chicken provencal but could have stood up to red meat too. Nice qpr at ~$30. Note this is not the “cuvee unique”, which apparently a 100% new oak bottling - this is the regular which is 85% old. — 5 years ago

There is no passion to be found playing small - in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.
