the 2008 will really start to blossom with five or six years of bottle age

This is certainly good but 2017 is not a great vintage for this wine

Mild reduction pushes the underlying fruit to the background but I doubt that it will persist

somewhat closed down at this stage from an aromatic perspective

Drink 2016-2030+ Tasted January 2014

Sylvain Cathiard, Bourgogne Rouge other_regions the 2008 will really start(from a parcel of vines that are in Flagey opposite Clos de Vougeot). Mild reduction pushes the underlying fruit to the background but I doubt that it will persist. The sleek, cool and unusually refined middle weight flavors deliver outstanding depth and length for the genre. This utterly delicious yet serious effort is highly recommended. (87 89) 2018+
