Tuesday, November 3, 2015 - The wine of the night out of an All-Star line up of Guigals. An absolutely magical nose giving off smoking meats, bone marrow, cote de boeuf, bacon, duck fat, and boiling oils in addition to soft red cherries and red rose petals. A developed palate delivering ripe red cherry and strawberry fruit that wouldn't normally indicate a 25-year-old wine if everything weren't in such perfect harmony. Tertiary notes of iron, red soil, and cinnamon present as well. Aromas and tastes of coffee grounds, espresso, and leathers intermittent throughout. Simply beautiful.
