  Similar notes as Geeky - I think this is the bottle I got from him as well, so same lot.
  
  Was showing very nicely out the gate, fresh - bright acidity but still lots of tertiary going on. Good intro to what aged burgundy tastes like.

  Damn that was great. INCREDIBLY youthful: very, very fresh without any muddled character. Beautifully delineated. Very light bodied. Lots of acid, with very, very fine (but present) tannins in the background. Still a good deal of structure. Cherry/cranberry fruit.
  
  Changed a great deal over the 3 or so hours consumed. Started bright and vibrant, closed down a slight bit (with structure taking over) and then took on a charcoal/campfire character at the end which was also very pleasant and interesting.
  
  Great wine and seems like it has at least 20 years ahead of it.
