9.3

9.2 for now. The nose is leathery, feral and wild, with complex dark berry fruit, a touch of barnyard, a little Brett and a faint balsamic edge. There is real personality here, and the slight evolution in the color fits the more mature aromatic profile. The palate is plump, rich and ripe, with a solid dark-fruited core, good freshness, acidity and firm tannins. Plenty of material and depth, but right now it lacks the finesse and elegance I look for above all else in Côte-Rôtie. Interesting and well made, but not fully together yet.

This went the opposite direction first, dropping to 9.1, then completely transformed with air, gaining dark florals, meatiness, silk, finesse and tiny-berry intensity, ultimately finishing at 9.3. — a day ago
