This has ripe, black fruits, vanilla, quite aromatic though and the oak much better integrated. Medium/full bodied, dark fruit, some richness here but underlying firm tannins still rpesent, fresh acids, good if not outstanding length on the finish. Enjoyed this but not at the level of the Ponsot that preceeded it,

1/6, excellent cork. Quite youthful, medium/ruby garnet core, pale garnet rim. Nose shows smoky red fruit, touch of liquorice, soil and a slight herbal note. Medium/full bodied on the palate with spicy red fruit, fine but still firm tannic backbone, quite big but a core of pure red fruit and attractive offsetting vibrant acids which carry a very good length if still slightly firm finish. If time softens the tannins this could become outstanding.

Medium red with an elegantly dull sheen. Nose of mild manure and some cherry. A bit bland. Low alcohol, very nice and slightly bitter/sour raspberry. Mouth-puckering tannins.

Nice bottle of matured red Burgundy. Just hitting it's peak.

Farewell Filippo, Il Duomo table (La Trompette, London): Quite a meaty and evolved nose. Rich and meaty with a core of dark sweet fruit. A dark and luxurious quality to the fruit. A density. ****
