very elegant 05. No surprise from Gibourg. Incredibly pretty red fruit and still fresh and youthful as so many 05s feel but far more generous than most 05s. Beautiful wine, an 05 I wouldn’t be afraid to crack

Refined red fruit, with excellent precision/detail. Really well made, though i agree with the comment below that the fruit is a bit thin, especially in the context of this structured vintage as the tannins retain some astringency. It was much better on the second night so decant

Again a masterpiece of Mugneret-Gibourg. One of my absolute favourite domains in Burgundy. Still lot of fruit. Very elegant, refined, at Its top. Very long finish. Balanced, no secundary taste. Fantastic bottle !

Another amazing '05 M-G. Jayer-like in its purity of red fruit and total seamlessness.

Sensational wine, nearing perfection. Bright red fruits with a whiff of autumn notes. Silky palate with an extremely long elegant finish. Sheer class.
