France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Romanée St. Vivant Grand Cru
Drinking really well. Came out awkward. After an hour or so, presenting beautifully in the glass and on the nose. ADV says this could last 20 years due to using 60% stems. The mix gives the wine structure without any green. Bertrand called this the “yoga wine” - you should sit with this and just meditate. I agree with him.

This was a bit more concentrated than the 07. The warmth of the vintage showed here. Still quite good just not fully expressive yet - need to crack the shell and then this will probably be quite good.

Charming. Youthful even at 24 years in. ADV said this was delicious in barrel but closed after bottling. Closed due to cold wind from the north. He kept referring to them as being “cold”. Coming out of its shell now. Good Richebourg spice.
