Three hours opened, one hour decant, drank over an evening. Evolved nicely, but always a bit restrained, with a long mouth finish, some bramble, red currant, to go with the notes of underbrush and pencil lead. Excellent, and in its window.

This is great but far from where its potential will take it. No gunpowder, but intense cherries and very very soft rose petals. Ever so slightly humid forest and some oak. This is still very much closed down.
Best kept in cellar the next 5-6 years

Never as subtle as the Cambolle and Clos V from Confuron, but an intense nose, strong tannic line and good mouth feel. Definitely needed decanting and just entering its drinking window.
