WTN: I like 99 Potel CM, I don't like 2003 La Rosine

1999 Nicolas Potel Chambolle-Musigny
On the palate it starts by showing decomposing mature tea but there is still a chunk of fruit in the middle and some tannin on the finish. And, it integrates with air showing more silk, more meat, and more life. I didn’t know what to expect aging-wise from this village wine, but after watching this grow I’m guessing that more good things will come in the future.

2003 Ogier La Rosine VdPdcr Syrah
The flavors are pure seamless porkberry Northern Rhone syrah. Which I like. The texture on the other hand is thin dull and flat. Which I don’t like. I found this very extroverted and fun upon release but the lack of structure is showing for the worse and I’m guessing not many good things will come in the future.

I do too from what little I've had. A couple Volnays that were nice.
