Description
TASTING NOTE: This is notably ripe with blue and red berry liqueur aromas that are liberally laced with an intense floral component. There is fine volume to the delicious, vibrant and relatively powerful medium-bodied flavors that also enjoy an abundance of dry extract that coats the palate on the long and balanced finish. Again, an excellent quality level for a villages level wine. Drink [from] 2016+. Score: 90 (Allen Meadows, burghound.com, May 6, 2011)

Tasting Notes
A ripe and beautifully layered nose speaks of black cherry, humus, underbrush and plenty of Gevrey-style earth. There is good precision and fine volume to the mineral-inflected, suave and punchy medium weight flavors that exhibit fine balance on the impressively long finish. There is a sense of harmony here and overall this is a relatively refined Gevrey villages. Outstanding. Top Value. Drink: 2020+. Score - 89-91. (Allen Meadows, burghound.com, April 15, 2014)
