  This is a special wine - a simply dreamy nose, the attack has ample complexity, depth and purity. A real classic.

  Clean, with dark red fruit, dense spice and varied soil tones. Hadd all required elements, although a standout on any one of them. Suffered somewhat from the comparison to an exceptional bottle of '64

  Father’s Day 2020. Bouquet leapt right out of the bottle and then filled the room from the decanter! Mature dusty red/orange colour. Spicy vosne on the nose, bright red fruit, slightly sweetness as well. Perfectly balanced on the palate, acid, fruit tannins...for a 54 year old wine with low ullage! Kept going all evening till the last drop - Profound bottle that ranks up there with the 71 La Tache and 61 La Mission!

  Every so slightly impacted by something, likely bacterial, that interfered with the expression of the wine. Beautiful color though to this bottle.

  Good weight. Richebourg character shows. Good bottle.
