A fully mature and seriously pretty nose of spice, earth, underbrush and an interesting hint of the sauvage combines with delicious, round and rich flavors that offer excellent depth and almost none of characteristic acidity that punctuates the finish on many '69s today plus, here there is vibrancy and punch rather than fatigue. This is a lovely wine that is arguably holding up better than its Musigny counterpart these days, especially over the last 5 years or so. In short, great stuff and while there is no reason to wait, neither is there any reason to hurry to drink up. - Allen Meadows, Burghound

This is spectacular. Decanted, and chilled down a little, this is a Wine Society bottling, but it was bottled at France, so I’m assuming it was domaine bottled. It’s fresh and bright, with a hint of malty richness on the nose but a pristine, silky palate. The texture is amazing: it’s rich and seamless with elegance meeting power, and the softest structure. Sweet black cherries and plums underpinned by smooth, fine-grained tannins. Ethereal, and 1969 isn’t supposed to be a great year. 97/100
