Red fruits, sweet spice, and roses on the nose with hints of sous bois, but the nose kept playing hide and seek after being open for quite a while. The palate was rich with room to grow with long finish. This wine needs more time, bury them in the cellar.

Each sip was like gargling rocks of the highest caliber, and the nose with green fruits, lemon zest, creme fraiche, and a slight nuttiness. The wine has tremendous structure and shows why Chez Lamy has chosen to plant in Haute Densite format. This wine punches well above its weight class, and will continue to improve.

Very reductive upon opening, but the funk blew off after a quick decant. The nose was quite tertiary with forest floor, smoke, olive, but then some black fruits came into the mix. The palate was concentrated and quite resolved leading to long finish. This wine is reminder of its past beauty and should be drunk now.
