Drank at a wine dinner at Maiolino NYC. Surpisingly tasty with great body. Dark color but stood up surprisingly well to the age. The star of the night.

G6 (Dave): Dark golden color reveals its age. Funky tropical fruit nose with some oxidation. Tastes of pears with butterscotch. Soft finish. On the downward slope. Drink up.

Replaced a corked wine. Tangy, buttery evolved, more so than the corked wine it replaced, which seemed a bit livelier. Very good, but only as it should be.

highly evolved, and perhaps more correctly, over the hill. dark yellow color, and a caramel/oaked, butterscotch note, that rick says means oxidation.

Sadly, corked beyond redemption and bought in Chassagne five years ago so no chance of a refund. Underneath the filthy nose lurked a 92 scoring wine.
