Really……disappointed, with this thin wine. From the stellar 2009 vintage, I was hoping for depth, charachter, fruit and a cellaring potential. Nothing I mentioned showed up for this party. Overly acidic, unbalanced and lacking any semblance of a typical Burgundy, this wine is a major pass. Move it along people, don’t waste your time. I get nothing on the nose, a thin reedy mid palate of just juice and no fruit on the finish at all. 1star, and a paltry 80 points if done by pro wine taster. Sorry to burst bubbles….
That’s sad, especially for a Premier Cru…
Extremely sad….. One would expect better from a premier cru in such a vintage. I will re-try in a few years, perhaps (I doubt), it is resting itself. Time will tell.
Maybe it’s a sleeper…do you have another bottle to try later (few years)? That seems so strange for what should be a very pretty wine….
I do have another bottle and will try it in 2 years. I have had a few “sleepers” in my time, but nothing like this one. I drank the whole bottle over a 4 hour period, just hoping something would evolve. I will be truly humbled if this wine was indeed taking a nap. For the price paid, and the vintage in question, this wine should be awesome.
