2004 Lignier-Michelot Gevrey Chambertin

A surprisingly ripe nose of earth, crushed berries and a touch of animale leads to round, rich and punchy flavors that don't possess the same degree of phenolic ripeness, particularly on the edgy finish. This may round out with additional time in barrel but my guess is that this will always display a bit of an edge. Burghound 85-88
