  Troplong Mondot: 1959-2012 (Stockholm, Sweden): Semi-blind (knew which 17 vintages that were being served).
  
  Dark colour.
  Neutral nose with lighter barrel notes, varnish and liquorice.
  Polished, pure red berries in a good drinking phase and really good!
  Feels like a classic medium-good Bdx
  
  My guess: Didn't get it right, even with only 4 choices left...
  Much better than expected! Wow!

  I think this is bottle 9 from a dozen and this doesn't hit the heights of some earlier bottles. There is nice sweet mulberry on the nose but it feels a shade muted. The palate likewise is a little cool and feels greener than it was a couple of years ago. On this showing I would probably start to drink up.

  Just a brief update but this continues to drink very well. Lovely mid-bodied Merlot dominant claret. Still fruit led with a nice amound of development. No rush to drink up.

  This bottle was better than the one I opened yesterday. Very fruity and sweet nose, full body, a lot of wood.

  Flat and flabby with awkward tannins. A very tired fruit bomb.
