May 28, 2016 - The nose is haunting - great aged Pinot perfume. Holds together well even if drying out a bit. Bottle deteriorated quite quickly, so not much time left to drink

November 17, 2010 - Completely bricked through. The rot of the 1983 vintage is very clearly shown on the palate of this wine. Tannins are gravely. skip

October 29, 2005 - A rather murky appearance. quite hight oned on the nose with signs of advanced ageing. Quite sweet fruit on the palate. Quite drying in the mouth and probably a bit dried out. Good.

11/1/2005 (link)(Hudelot-Noellat Romanée Saint-Vivant) Excellent medium-plus colour, clear and bright, ruby cored with an amber edge. The nose initially disappoints majoring on sous-bois elements - slowly it builds meat then chocolate aspects before finally giving up spicy red fruit. On the palate acidity is the dominant aspect, still coupled to mouth wrapping tannins of some grain that dominates what fruit there is. There is one saving grace, the finish is very long and has a compelling raisin aspect to it. That the wine easily held-up in the glass, indeed improved over 2 hours, implies that this wine isn't simply over-the-hill, rather that it was never a great wine - the fruit was perhaps never a match for the structure. An interesting, but ultimately disappointing wine.
