Killer showing for this. Big ripe cherries and spices. Dark and rich. Sinewy. Sous Bois up the ying yang. So much cherry fruit. Really aromatic. Really great and transformed with a little age. Palate is ripe and rich but with that Cruchandeau freshness and high acidity. Complex and still tannic this is structured enough to age but can be enjoyed now with an hour decant. What a great vintage for Julien. The 2012 amplitude and volume really shows up after an hour. Wish I had more.

Awesome, loved this the most of all the @Lyle Fass wines this evening to drink now. A new region and producer for me I am going to seek this one out. Fleshy red fruits with spikes of savory and spice notes in the wine. A pure expression of Pinot Noir, the nose and palate were layered and persistent with a fleshy, medium grain ripe and silky tannic finish. Drink now with an hour, 2 is better of air. Will go this distance 12-15 years easy, maybe 20. Loved this!

Love this wine. So well made. Distinctly ladoix. Lovely licorice dark berry fruit. Juicy. Amazing change of pace burg I'm so stoked I had in the cellar. Bought from Fass selections.
