Richebourg and Meursault: Opened an hour before pouring. This had a stemmy greenness that was more prevalent compared to the 06, but was also more structured and tighter knit. Air time revealed different layers and the purple fruit and muscular energy one expects from Richebourg.

This was opened at a large gathering of wine geeks. I was able to taste this about 30 minutes after it's been opened, and again about 2 hours later. There was a green-ness to this that showed a prominent dill note, along with earth, and dried red fruits. There was a depth to this, but it was lacking the complexity and depth I expected. Nice to try, but not worth the tariff in my mind. Outstanding...but just barely.

03047/13635, in the 07 trio. Firmer and more intellectual as a wine but rather shy. Somewhat thin still today, very similar to the last bottle. 93-94

Slightly muted aromatics with weird nuttiness, but ultra persistent palate which exhibits stems. An off bottle. (1981/13635)
