Very good. Velvety texture. Red with some blue fruits, hints of underbrush. Intense yet light, even delicate, with the last sip easily the best. The wine is already open for business but, despite 2007 being the year that it was, I see further upside till 2027—the wine will become even more harmonious by then. 92-93.

"Off vintage" burgundy can be so fantastic: 07s were not lauded, but I have had nothing but pleasure from the 07s I've opened; this bottle is no exception. Lovely nose with wild strawberry, a touch of floral, some coffee/cinnamon...on the palate, just fantasric acidity; so vibrant...mulberry, wild strawberry, a touch of leather, a hint of cola, and a tangy finish, where the tannin just caresses your palate to a close. This is drinking so well right now.

Lovely and mature grand cru burg - all silky cherries and soft tannins.

Light easy drinking , better than his Chambertin grand cru which was also thin.

Drinking well, but overshadowed by the competition tonight.
