  Bottle and fill excellent. Cork soaked nearly to the top. Popped and poured carefully avoiding sediment. Big and quite tight (definitely decant this). I have been told that one should not decant Burgundy, but I almost always do. This took well over an hour to really open up and show itself. Beautiful development of raspberries, forest, pine, earth etc.. A lovely wine from a reliable producer in what I believe is an underrated vintage. These 87s are really nice examples of their terroirs with proper Burgundian weight and style. Will last if well-stored, but probably not improve.
