Hi all,
I'm thinking about opening one of only two bottles. What do y'all think? I don't mind if the answer is "wait another lifetime" so fire away...
I have to say, though, my experience with the 1997 vintage seems a lot more positive than some. I've opened many regional, village and 1er cru bottles and had basically no duds -- by sticking to the good producers and well-stored bottles. It would be a shame if the grands crus were an exception to this pattern. (The wines don't have much stuffing, but they have beautiful bright fruit and balance.)
Any opinions would be appreciated.
Karl
