Opened up a bit shy but really grew with air. The fruit came forward and balanced out the acidity. It drinks ok now with some air but it never really reaches high standards. Best with food.

Popped and poured. Sweet fruit. Sous bois. Mature now. Need a few hours to open up. Smooth tannins that are well integrated. Not a big wine but drinking well. A pleasure.

Savigny-les-Beaune 1er cru La Dominode, Domaine Bruno Clair 1990, en Magnum
Au début le nez me semblait un peu réduit, j’y trouvais même du band-aid…qui céda place rapidement à des parfums de viande crue. La bouche est vigoureuse, d’une jeunesse étonnante, avec une très belle texture et une finale aérienne. Superbe. 92 pts

Still fine. Earthy, dark red cherries, acidity. A bit woody and smoky. More tasty than the palate suggests. Ok
