Burgundy For Lunch Bunch Holiday Event 2023 (Phoenix, AZ USA): Pure, complex, beautiful with beguiling spice. Served blind, I was shocked on the reveal as I thought this was about a decade older. A special vintage for this legendary wine. Can be enjoyed now, and will probably metamorphose into something different in time - although not necessarily better than the grand state it's in today.

Exuberant and complex wine. Rich, vibrant red berries and cherry, it’s deep fruited with well judged acidity. Complete, and drinking better than the 10 imo

Opened about 5 hours before. The nose consists of a mixture of wild spices, cherry, and a bit of oak. Muscular yet elegant, still in its early development. Quite meaty with lots of raspberries.

So perfumed, spicy and sumptuous. Great flesh and intensity. Berry and cherry fruit flavours abound. It is a big and powerful wine but in perfect proportion and possessing exquisite balance. Perfectly ripe tannins carry the extremely long finish.

A bit shy on the nose, and while initially reserved on the palate it did open up with time in the glass. Decanted two to three hours.
