Bright, vibrant, pure fruit aromas. Sweet concentrated red fruits, toffee, and spice. Heavy and powerful but lacking finesse. Too ripe for my preference but still a very nice wine.

Decanted, let sit in wide-bottom decanter for 2 hrs before serving. Restored my faith in gc burgundy, and the first burg I have had in a while that really made me stop and take notice. Stunning nose with pure strawberry, a hint of coffee and toast, and more fruit following. On the palate, great body and acidity with loads of red fruit and a hint of leather and earth. Drinking beautifully now with a decant, but the secondary is starting to show, and will probably be very compelling with more age.
