Medium light red with clear edges. Nice slightly ripe nose, red cherry, spice, earth and some developing burgundy funk. Delicious slightly ripe earthy cherry and shitake flavours and a long dry finish.
Could still develop, not at all roasted or cooked like some 03s can be. I have enjoyed a few wines from Boisset. All blind, so no prejudice.

Medicinal. Menthol. Spice. Black tea. Earthy. Masculine and very gevrey. Probably past it's prime. Only by a few teats though. Good wine for the price and the hot vintage.
