Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar: 90 points

Good full deep red. Vibrant aromas of black fruits, violet and menthol. Youthful and cool following the Nuits samples, with primary dark berry flavors complicated by notes of mint and bitter chocolate. Not especially long today, but this tightly wound wine is very unevolved and in need of four or five years of aging.
