Bottle I had a couple weeks ago was obviously oxidized. This one is serious and holding together nicely. Dense, brooding, but enough femininity to not need meats or anything against it. Minerals and a metal tint for sure present and available.

Only an hour in right now. The temperature in this room is about 63 F and so is the wine. It has concentration and finesse. Dark cherries are transcending into subtle polished leathery finish with a fine viscosity. Will take this down the road and open in another hour. The effect is a little witchy...a little more than meets the taste buds. Rating it 8.5 at the moment for the price...its transcending the everyday Bourgogne but I haven't caught it in prime time methinks. ... 3 hours later: this wine is haunted. Emotions exploded, glasses were broken, heartbreak ensued. It needs a bit more time to calm down.
