(opened from personal storage). A classic Vosne nose with plenty of still relatively youthful, earthy and wonderfully spicy pinot fruit is followed by deep, rich and seductive medium-bodied flavors that remain firmly structured but not hard and more importantly, not dry given the character of many '95s today. While this could be drunk now with pleasure, personally I will continue to cellar my bottles for another 5 to 7 years because my sense is that the '95 Cros has not completely peaked yet though as I say, the wine is approachable with 30 minutes or so of air. Multiple, and largely consistent, notes.

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
Arguably Burgundy's most exalted village, home to legendary Grand Crus. Its Pinot Noir is renowned for perfume, silk and sublime complexity.
