Uncorked:

on the Chambolle side with 50 year old vines.
Perfumed red fruit, lowish acidity but with that 09 freshness. Mor tannins here though fine ones, slightly phenolic finish at this stage. Length, fruit coating. (CW 05/11/10)

Allen Meadows:

(from 40+ year old vines). Mild reduction cannot completely hide what appears to be notably ripe, and largely purple, fruit. There is good vibrancy to the supple, fresh and mouth coating flavors that possess a sophisticated mouth feel and excellent power and focus on the driving and explosive finish. While not a wine of finesse, this should be excellent and if it can add a bit more depth, it should merit the top end of my predicted range. Drink 2017+. 90-93 points
