  Much younger than the bottle a week before. Lighter colour and fresher nose and palate. Not quite as complex as a result but still perfectly pitched. Again, lemon citrus covered in sweet honey, with a little meursault spiciness thrown in for good measure. These two bottles for a tenner each have been my bargains of the year! Can't wait to try the 90s.

  Deep, golden colour on pouring. I was a little concerned it might be oxidised based on the colour and a sharp nose. However, with a few minutes it settled down. Clearly at the end of its life but what a spectacular finale it provided. Almost made me cry with frustration at the destruction that POX has wrought when you experience what a perfectly mature white burgundy like this can offer. Such delicate precision. Slight nuttiness, waves of lemon coated in sweet honey. Cerebral and perfect.
