  I gave this time and perhaps too much. It was stood up for 3 days and then uncorked without decant. It was at best uncorked for 8 hours without decant but alas I did decant and some of the joy of the fruit was gone by the time we sat down 4 hours later. Still very good burgundy without being special

  Needed time to open up. More bright and new world. Tannins were a bit too strong and not certain if they will resolve over time. Solid but not sublime

  darker than expected with clear rim and heavy earth notes and animally smell more like a Pommard than a Gevery to me. The palate was a bit hollow at first but after decanting the palate filled out in a broad way and the wine became massive and delicious. I would llike to wait another 5 years before revisitiing
