  Top 1ers for AK's birthday: Assemblage from DRC’s GC plots that didn’t make the cut. Still very Vosne but more masculine and blue-fruited than the Arnoux alongside. Rather stemmy that I felt this was almost a textbook Dujac. Weaker vintage showed here as the tannins weren’t as refined and more drying compared to the A-L alongside, but will bet on this improving with time given the massive concentration and quality of underlying material here.

  A little less expressive on the nose than the 2006 G. Mugneret N-S-G Les Boudots tasted before. Mix of red and darker fruit notes, spices, minerality. Lots of depth and elegance. On the palate wonderfully harmonious - there is good structure, but the tannins are hardly noticeable. Lovely fruit, perfectly integrated acidity. Spicy, mineral, still a litte tight towards the impressively persistent finish. Not showy at all, elegant and powerful at the same time. Magnificent. Drink or keep. 95-97

  Couleur et limpidité typique de la DRC. Nez magnifique, fruits rouges, une tonne d’épices, un tout petit peu de roses mais moins que d’habitude. La bouche est toute aussi fine et pure, expressive et fraîche, tellement soyeux en bouche sans être dénuée de puissance mais contenue. Magnifique. 94-95
  
  Typical DRC colour. Nose is gorgeous, complex, a touch of rose but mostly layers of spices, flowers, red fruit. Palate goes along the same lines, finesse and elegance, yet still some power but so contained with grace and class, good length.

  Thus was inadvertently forgotten and stored on the boat for some year or more standing up. Cork was still good and wine was surprisingly fresh with cherry fruit, balanced and drinking perfectly. It was mature and ready to drink, perhaps from not being well stored but was quite good.
