Our delayed, fancier, 2019 Valentine's Day dinner.
Such infanticide! Note to future self, do not open any '10's until at least 2025+

Pretty deelish-barnyardy with terrific tart fruit, racy medium bodied wine, good intensity with a lingering finish

The first thing that surprises me is elevated acidity and excessive tearing. Medium plus alcohol. This doesn’t feel like aged grand cru. There is sous bois but not mushroom-y enough. I think this juice needs more aging. The wine is almost perfect.

2010 Beautiful mint quality, violets, dark fruit, and still a bit tight! Should be good for 20 years.
