A hunter's meal

Great dinner at A. and S. place next to ours.
Pheasant/Partridge and red cabbage.

Aloxe - Corton - - 2005 - Domaine Desquaires Chopin - 13/20
Surprising wine. Initial nose is a deep cherry smell.
Well balanced with a more than expected length (5).
The first attractive impressions somehow faded away when the aftertaste left in the mouth was very bitter and green. Is that due to the way the wine was made/or kept?
