Thanksgiving 2023 (Los Gatos, California): Light red. Ripe fruit aromas without any green notes. Impressive concentration of sappy blackberry, dark red fruit, and licorice with significant remaining tannic clout. A big cru with serious depth and structure that is not yet at peak. More a wine of the vintage than the Fleurie was.

Aging beautifully. Still full of life and energy, no tiredness. The age is recognizable thou - from watery rim, leathery and little porty nose, alcohol. On the palate calm, compact, soft, still fresh, long clean finish. Very good aged bojo. Clean, long and still alive. Interesting.

Passover, and well-liked. Restrained and Burg-like at this stage, though certainly Gamay.

Still going strong - what a nose - just gorgeous…. Surprising few signs of age - minor bricking only. Impressive…

Oxydée comme les 2 précédentes, sans doute un problème de stockage
