Opens a bit tight right now. Needed about a couple hours worth of air.
Very clear and bright, this is a pretty wine to look at and this theme continues.
Very fruity floral nose, and a dose of cedar and tobacco.
On the palate, a bit forward, cherry, red fruits, plum. Hint of minerals, tannins in check, pretty and elegant. About $40.

Your note reminded me that I have a La Pousse d'Or (not the Santenay but I think a 1er Cru also) somewhere in my collection that may be ready for drinking. Will look for it for late May or early June possibly.

I have an '02 Santenay 1er Cru, any guesses if it's closed for business?
- TheEngineer - 05-01-2007
It's maybe only me but none of the 02's that I've had are closed.....though they should be. The '02's are suppose to last for quite some time though so I would not open them yet. That's why I'm picking away at other things.

okey-dokey!
Since I buy by the bottle and not the case,
I have to be careful about my timing!
Thanks! [img]http://wines.com/ubb/smile.gif[/img]
