Finally finding some 09 Burgs I really dig. Savigny is the spot.

The nose is so inviting. Firmly cherried, heavy violets on the nose, pretty acidic is the problem, long finish but the bitterness and sting on the palate is not typically Burgundian. Goes great with Paul McCartney music videos through the years though.

2005 - great earthy nose right from the get go. balanced acidity even from the start, which mellows to give way to a pleasant palette of red fruit (but not jammy) burgundy-ness. after opening up over a period of about 2 hours, wine seems to stay tightening up after 3 hours again. Didn't decant. Drank late 2015.

2005 still quite hard. Great acidity. Finally opened up after a couple hours in decanter. Really nice stuff to it. Earthy, herbal spice. Wait a few years before opening another.
