a stunning bottle if stored properly. the grassiness has subsided and it's incredibly balanced and deep. my guess is that this could live for another 4-5 years.

Initially on open the wine was a bit thin and not apparant. We corked it back up and tried it a hour later and it had really blossomed. Real savory dusty fruit. Expansive and textured with a bit of green pepper bite on the back end. But very well balanced and in a prime drinking spot with some air.

Clos Rougeard 1976 - 2010 organised by Jordi Orriols-Gil (Noble Rot, London): Quite a fatty Lex Poyeux. Probably the richer or the vintages we have come across akin to a 1999 Burgundy richer. Good soft red fruit , nice balance of savoury and fruit albeit the richness of the fruit would have off centred the wine , and also the acidity felt lower too, the lighter handed winemaking in this vs Le Bourg keept the wine in tune.very good and with good future. 93

Belle bouteille donnée par Marc D. Le bouchon et la bouteille en parfait état. Nez légèrement floral, de violettes. Bouche frais et exubérant, avec éléments de bouillon de viande, herbes séchées et de fruits mûrs.

This showed beautifully tonight. Very elegant, barely showing its age, not a thing out of place. No formal TN, but I liked it a lot.
