Elegant and very pure. Even with a decant the wine was a bit tight though. That said, still quite enjoyable and can see the potential here. Excellent value for an 05’ too.

Knightsbridge Holiday Burgundy Sale (Northbrook, IL): Big and burly aromas of black fruit, followed by backward flavors of black cherry and plum, barely sneaking out from beyond the super prominent tannins. Good depth but just moderate length, I imagine this will need Corton's typical 2+ decades to integrate.
