Nice fruit, nicely tannic, but a bit jammy. — 8 years ago
Serious wine, whatever that means. Nose of deep red fruits with an undercurrent of freshly cut grass and a hint of earthiness. Still a bit primary and tannic, but still just intense, focused and ethereal. Much more chambolle than NSG — 6 years ago
Quintessential French rosé for refreshing, sweet (but not too sweet) summer sipping. Can't go wrong with the region... I think I'm in love 👌 — 8 years ago
A marvelous showing for the Vergy 2008. Light on its feet yet gorgeously complex, right in between first and secondary aromatics. — 7 years ago
Mum likes it and she hates red wine. Liquorice on the nose. — 8 years ago

Blinded, I honestly didn’t think much of it. It just didn’t have any defining character or complexity to stand out in the line up. Found this note off the interweb, which is relevant:
This is a relatively newly planted single vineyard that formerly was the land of the Monks of Vergy, and is situated along the path they took daily to reach the abbey of Saint-Vivant from Vosne-Romanée. It is at a higher elevation and looks down on the famous Grand Cru sites of Vosne Romanee; the soil here is clay limestone.
The wine is characterized by a dense purple color. The taste of wine is fresh, generous, with crisp acidity and a crisp nuances of oak wood. The finish is a little bluff. Aromatic bouquet of wine abounds with tones of ripe and juicy red fruit. — 3 months ago
