magnum bottle. red fruits, red flower, long finish. palate is tight. High acidity and fine tanning. Very juicy and meaty. But little bit cloudy not clean, maybe because natural wine's nature.

Village night. Rare to see old bottles like this. Aromatics of sarsaparilla, cinnamon and medicine. Maybe too much of latter. Palate arguably held fruit better than young ones today.

Dark red; maturing color with a slightly watery rim; a bit viscous but still almost transparent and not extracted in appearance. Nose is sweet, intense, rich without overripeness. Mouth impression is similar but more restrained; firm acids and tannin just now melting together; still has a primary fruit element under the Vosne spice and mushroom. A faint bit of warmth in the moderately long finish. Good plus.

Not impressive, espeically for the vintage. Very stemmy, but went ok with the pheasant course
