Tasting note: Good dark red. Reserved but complex nose offers black raspberry, smoked meat, spicecake and minerals. Dense, serious and youthfully closed, with flavors of small wild berries and spices. Finishes with somewhat tougher tannins than the Morey premier crus and thus a bit more rustic today. (90pts. Stephen Tanzer)

Tasted: Mar./Apr. 2009

Drink: N/A

Tasting note: A wonderfully elegant, fresh and ripe nose of red berry fruit is nuanced by Gevrey earth and obvious minerality that continues onto the rich, full and distinctly refined flavors that display controlled power and focus on the dense, long and serious finish. Oddly, given the character of the vintage, this seems more masculine, indeed distinctly muscular, than normal yet it carries the additional weight with grace and harmony. (91pts. Burghound)
