  still dark and showing little age. Somewhat closed now. Needs some years.
  edit: looking at it in the cold light of the morning, the colour is showing some age, and it's more supple in the mouth. Still needs age.

  Still young. Transparent with youthful meniscus. Nose lively and pure, almost voluptuous. Mouthfeel integrated and savoury, almost salty. Tannin evident but luxurious and totally harmonious. I'm glad that I have a few more of these. Try again in 2 years- no hurry- but I might have trouble keeping my hands off them.
  Additional comment: next day it seemed a bit more tannic, so my rave should be tempered. In my defence, I had just had a 2007 Chateauneuf so the Burgundy was a revelation. Maybe 90 would have been a better mark?
