A deep, brooding, intense monster.. gnarly fruit with deep, soulful savory notes. Black cherry, iron. But stop so pretty. Positive. Years to go. Delicious. — 2 days ago

Pitted against the 19’ Grivot Boudots in our little “Vosne-side of NSG” blind shootout, this was the more “smash-mouth” wine of the two. I thought the nose was really flamboyant, with very obvious creamy new oak; and richer notes like ripe plums, mocha, and touch of truffles. It felt darker in general, especially the fruit (more dark fruits, though red fruits were present) and floral notes (violets instead of roses). Both were similarly powerful on the palate, but the oak and fruit seemed to have overwhelmed the more energetic mineral character by the end of dinner. Having said all that, it was still an amazing wine and one with vibrancy, but it just lacked the transparency of the Grivot which I preferred. Perhaps time will bring it more balance. Notably, it had 0.5% more abv than the Grivot when revealed (14% vs 13.5%). — a month ago

No specific notes but a very elegant, spicy and floral burg done by one of the finest we know. Really good bottle and recommended. Might be a notch or two better with another 5 to 6 years of cellar time. — 2 months ago

Not part of our little “Vosne-side of NSG” blind shootout, but it might as well have been. Opened earlier during dinner as a blind, I thought it looked very NSG. Why I had it there was mostly down to the elimination process in our blind options. Right on I was, but had it younger.

Very dark fruited on the nose, along with earthy, spicy notes and hints of dark chocolate and moss. The palate was quite pure and elegant, with grippy tannins and an earthy, lightly mineral (which didn’t seem to grow with air) finish. When drank side-by-side with the pair of 19’ NSG during dinner, it didn’t quite have the depth not intensity of the two. It certainly wasn’t as bombastic as the MG, nor had the obvious “goût de terrior” notes of the Grivot, but had a certain elegance I liked. — 24 days ago

Dug out of the wine fridge for a night in….
An excellent wine and everything we love in fine red Burgundy, concentrated fruit, long finish, light and smooth at the same time. Will need to restock! — a month ago

My red of this Melbourne trip and winner of our little “Vosne-side of NSG” shootout. Pitted in a blind against the 19’ M-G Chaignots, and I felt it had more energy and better quality oak. Honestly, we were splitting hairs as both wines were on par in terms of complexity, intensity, and drinking pleasure.

On the nose, lifted red fruits, primarily ripe strawberries; hints of blackcurrants, roses, spice, earth, and a distinct chalkiness. You can really smell the “gout de terrior” here, and wood felt very seamless especially compared to the M-G. Pure, powerful, and silky on the palate, with a salinity that seemed to grow with air, and spice-inflected super lengthy finish. Loved the energy! Very young and structured for sure, but already a real joy to drink. — a month ago
