Dark fruited and relatively closed in. Let’s see how this goes with a bit more air in the glass. Some reduction on the palate, nicely dark fruited but still a bit closed in. Takes a while to give some aroma and fruit. Has taken nearly an hour to get here. I think this needs quite a bit more sleep to come round.

At £20 per bottle this is a steal - deep black fruits with cherries and minerals coming through - very much in the Pataille style, with a long, nuanced finish. Drink or hold - this will get better with more time but its going to be hard to resist. Some iron and blood coming through on the finish - what a great value Burg.

This is good. Quite rich, darkly scented fruit with gentle lift. Very attractive. Some interesting, quite savoury/earthy notes followed by really good depth of fruit which covers the ripe tannins. Chapeau. No rush, but this is ready to go.

This wine is starting to enter its mature drinking window and it's going to get better. Lovely red burgundy, juicy and bold.

Ian's 09 Bourgogne @ Club Gascon, dinner table 1 (Club Gascon, London): Somewhere between the Tremblay and the Barthod. Fragrant, less obvious and full on the palate but some complexity and interest here without the lift and fragrance of the Tremblay. ***
