  Neck fill. Still going strong. Currant, Oak, Tobacco, Forest floor (earthy) on the nose. Very well structured with supple tannins and still holding medium acidity.

  Great fill, didn’t decant. Acidity pretty well gone but this has held up. At 53 years this is super.

  Actually still had a good body. No decanting. Filtered straight to the glass basically.

  Past its best, really starting to thin out, losing color, but still enjoyable. Cigar box, cedar, and cave. Soft tannins, some fruit still there.

  Nez évolué sur le sous-bois, les fleurs séchées. C'est agréable mais il manque de complexité et de précision pour être totalement emporté.
  Bouche fondue mais pleine avec encore une matière bien présente. J'aime beaucoup l'équilibre perçu ; on enchaîne les verres avec beaucoup de plaisir sans saturation.
  Finale nette d'une persistance correcte sans plus
  
  Loin du grand frisson croisé sur quelques bordeaux âgés, mais bien un vin agréable sans doute plus sur la pente descendante qu'autre chose.
