Rousseau 2007 vs. 2008

Notice on Domaine Armand Rousseau's website how the Domaine describes 2007 and 2008 vintages:

http://www.domaine-rousseau.com/fr/millesimes/classement-millesimes.html

They suggest consuming 2008 relatively young, and that 2007 will endure the medium to long haul.

My instinct would have been the opposite.

Any thoughts?

Has anyone drunk Rousseau CdlR 1997 or Clos des Ruchottes 1997 recently, or any other Grand Cru 1997?

I forget the vintage, but the Rousseau's also once suggested that XXXX should be drunk young and consequently retained no stock at the domaine - those bottles are supposedly wonderful now, and they very much regret not keeping some ;-)
