Had this 1er les Saussilles shipped back from Beaune last year. MBE held it in storage in France but cork had wept and I was concerned the wine was cooked. Anyhow, I’d opened and the nose is light and fragrant,no signs of heat damage to the wine. Berries and light chocolate, very Burgundian on the nose, slightly gamey back pallet, typical pommard up front. Doesn’t linger on the pallet as long as I’d like. Has 5 years plus left but, if I had another I’d drink it now…..
