"This was showing very well in October, with its pyrazine elements very faint and fading nicely into the emerging layers of complexity on both the nose and palate. In fact, this showed so well that several tasters around the table commented that 'if this is what the best 2004 Burgundies are going to be like, I am going back out shopping for this vintage!' The nose is really very complex and attractive, as it offers up scents of red and black cherries, vinesmoke, espresso, celery seed, a complex base of soil, mustard seed and a touch of orange zest in the upper register. On the palate the wine is fullish, deep and very complex, with beautiful soil inflection, moderate tannins and really lovely length and grip on the modestly tannic and tangy finish. This is aging very gracefully and will be a dynamite bottle . . ."
