Delicate spice box, licorice, dried rose petal, briary scents, more minerality with air time come about with red cherry fruit base. Whiff of hoisin with more time in the glass; elegant structure, fine tannin. Lacks a bit of focus to take you to the next level imo. Pretty, fruity Vosne.

A nose that immediately screamed bordeaux. Has just turned into its secondary phase in the nose. Some coffee too. Cherries and coffee on the palette. Medium bodied.

Beautiful plummy, candy like fruit with oriental spice and a hint of smokiness.

Darkly colored; black fruited, very ripe with baking spices, notes of soil and iron. Extracted and with tannic toughness and plenty of zippy acid too. May emerge on the other side with more redeeming qualities but high risk. Loads of sediment. Seems to have been "made" rather than grown.

Just a wednesday evening in Leiden : Nose with dark fruit, sous-bois, some meat tones. Taste also dark fruit, good concentration, very balanced, spice and minerals. Long finish. Still a good amount of acidity, appears younger than most 2000 wines. Drinks very well now.

Very, very ripe. Nose of violets, purple and alcohol! Very extracted although it did calm a bit with air. Cali PN anyone? Not really my style.

It was surprisingly alcoholic and dark fruited for a 2000. None of the Vosne spice. Didn't like it much. My wife liked it, but she doesn't normally like red burgundy (she's more of a Rhone/Bordeaux sort of person). All bass notes, if that makes sense. Guigal does Vosne, in a way. I'll keep the rest of the pack for 5 years and hope that it blossoms into something a bit more restrained representative of its terroir.

A few bottles on Wednesday (Dave's House) : Popped and poured, followed over approximately 1 hour. Deep garnet colour in the glass. On the nose, notes of black cherries, brown sugar, dried fruits, undergrowth, blood, crushed rocks and suggestions of cured meat. Unfortunately, this had a slightly oxidative character, despite immaculate storage, that overlaid the nose and palate with notes of lightly bruised fruit. On the palate, the oxidation was more of an issue, as it really lingers on the …

Absolutely delicious. Quite intensely flavored wine with delicious garden fruit, flowers and under-brush. In a very good spot right now. Would love to own a case of this.

Beautiful Pinot from Burgundy but still lacks ripeness.

Showing some good devlopment on the nose with some compelling undergrowth brushings mixed with oppulent, rich aromas of black and red cherries and some spice. The palate also shows good richness of still some primary fruit but with dimension. Very classy and interesting. This is in the middle of its transitory stage at present; with still a lot of energy and freshness but showing some forest floor and undergrowth integration as well. Nice.

Eaten with pheasant, red cabbage and bread sauce. Went beautifully. Although 2000 vintage only just starting to show orange around rim. Good cherry flavours with an undertone of the forest floor, but taste of black fruits. Good length and great balance. Delicious.

Extremely nicely balance. Very good acidity and length. Fruit softened out. Nice floral notes and red fruits. A really good level of complexity coming through with some earthy notes (in check).

Dark ruby with nose of cherry and spice. More powerful than I expected, but very nice on the palate. Cherry. Blackberry, spice and plum. Nice intensity but with a short finish. Seems like it has years to go.

Was a bit worried that the 2000s were going over the top, but this was really lovely. dark ruby red colour, nose of oak with balckberries and cloves(?) or something sinilar. The flavours were much better than I recall the last bottle, - more defined and harmonious. Cherries and chocolate, but not as concentrated as the Suchots from same producer and vintage and seemed to be lacking some depth of flavour . Drank it with a cottage pie (Sommerfield) while …

The color of this wine is a deep a medium garnet with a hint of rose. The nose gives off scents of lush, ripe fruit ala plum pie, prune, and black cherry jam with a scent of jasmine and incense. I would give this nose a top rating and say it is indicative of what this wine will develop over the years on the taste. Today the taste is delicious with flavors of plum, blackberries, anise and spice. However, there …

This wine is as I described earlier this year. I would like to note that there is enough tartness in the fruit for it to continue to develop over the next five to ten years.

The color of this wine is a penetrating garnet. The nose is full of plum, boysenberry, blackberry and casis scents. The taste is of medium concentration and reflects flavors of plum, blackberry, red cherry and casis. All in all a very luschious drink. This wine while delicious today is still a young Burgundy. The darker side of this fruit will become evident over the next five years as the wine develops. There is great potential for a grand, old Burgundy …

This wine is fantastic. It is a bomb of earthy, lush, ripe red cherries and plums. It will only get better with time.
