Thursday, October 22, 2015 - A great wine dinner in Athens (Aleria, Athens): No decanting here. A majestic wine and simply perfect ( only our second 100 in 4.6k TNs the other been the 1983 La Mouline)
Quite a bit of evolution on the colour but still firm dark red. On the nose it is a symphony , a wine to medicate over, smoky, roast meet, light spice, dark fruits. All in balance and so expressive. The palate carries on the same tune , full of elegance, silky character and with a vibrant core of fruit. An amazing wine and a worthy 100. Would drink now albeit it has life in it.

Extra kudos to this wine as it impressed so much even after following the excellent 1983 Cheval Blanc (Papies 98)
