Monolithic dark fruit, with a surprisingly high level of tannins. Some dark soil tones and if one searches hard there might be faint nutmeg, but this wine was largely shutdown. Might have not been the most representative bottle, although everything appeared in order, or I may just not see what the professionals see in this wine in this vintage

Vertical of Clos Vougeot from 2005-1985 (Clos Vougeot): Lovely spicy nose. Clafoutis like fruit, cake and cherry. The palate is again a bit tight and unresolved as with the Faiveley, with a slightly mouth puckering aspect. Try now, if you must, but with a steak.

(Mugneret-Gibourg Clos Vougeot) Funky nose of earth, asian spices, mulberry. Chewy, concentrated and intense with great acids and perfectly ripe tannins. This really impressed me.

Mugneret Gibourg Clos Vougeot (Medlar (London)): Some savoury bay leaf notes, meatiness, sweetness and roundness, got to love 2000!

Grands Jours de Bourgogne 2014 Day 2: Côte de Nuits 3-18-13: Nose has that browning diaper thing going on; palate shows rusty Pinot Noir fruit and a lovely texture. Disclaimer: I typically prefer younger wines...
