  quite good! Drinks above it's pay grade. not extremely complex, rich , sweet with appropriate buffering acid. Youngish but drinks well.,

  Gentle, on the light side, as you'd expect for a Bourgogne, though quite good length. Looked much better with the Chinese roast duck I put it with. Probably won't improve but will hold for some years.
  Day 2 - opened up a little and no sign of fading. Quite a wine for its station. I'm sure VV helps. Pity I don't have a few of them.

  Opened tight, acid after decanting. No sediment. An hour later showed good structure and great drinkability if no pretence of greatness. Unmistakably Burgundy. Very well made. Drink now - 2020.
