By the glass at the BA lounge. Not a fresh bottle. Light red in colour.lght and muted on the nose. Quite a few bitter edges on the palate, almost green edge and really was on the disappointing side. Have we not have tried this before ( rated 89) we would have said this is barely an 80 wine but we guess it was a poor bottle.

At 33k feet courtesy of BA. Freshly opened bottle. Earthy, red fruits, light spice. Medium bodied wine, good mineral character but lacks on the depth side. For us this wine is very typical corton, a terroir we are not big in general, good but not of Grand Cru level. 89

Got to be one of the best values out there. Should buy a bunch more.
