  Nose was wide opened, floral and clean. Palate took almost one hour to develop, was a bit lean on the first sip. Red fruits with vibrant acidity, fairly typical of the vintage. Good depth and length especially for the vintage. A touch of dryness at backend. Drinking now and will last for a while, something like in the 6th inning of a baseball game. Another good showing of ‘07 Red Burgundy recently. Was going for something like £600/12 in the secondary markets a while back, no wonder some people called this vintage as gift from God to Burgundy drinkers.

  Both was a perfect condition, cork barely soaked. Exactly what we wanted from an aged burgundy. Perfumed nose of red fruit, thyme, sous bois. Palate very pure and ethereal with bright acid. Finish not super long, but still clean and nice. Much much better than a few 2013s we had last year, but I think the bottle condition was a big factor here.

  Reasonable nose - raspberry notes, red fruit, a gentle hint of spice. But all a bit muffled and blurry. And onto the palate - promising start for a nanosecond then it reveals a degree of acidic astringency and lamentable lack of length. So really rather bad especially when you think it now retails for an indecent sum. Avoid.

  A bit muddled. I’ve never loved 07 in red Burgundy (outside of Volnay) and this was consistent with that. Warm red fruit and soft tannins. I think this has peaked (a bit early for Barthod) and given the vintage I don't have a ton of confidence this will improve with further ageing.

  1/6, vg cork.
  Pale garnet core, wide very pale garnet rim. Lovely fragrant nose, sttawberries, florals, notes of soil and game. Medium bodied, strawberry fruit again, smoky mineral notes, elegant almost weightless but with real depth and prescence, very fine tannins, vibrant acids, lightly gamey notes coming through on the long finish. Excellent, touching outstanding this is drinking well but there's certainly no hurry.
