A private lunch (Restaurant The Lobby Fizeaustraat, Hotel V, Amsterdam, NL): Coravin. Tasted blind. Very mature appearance, little red left; very mature but fresh nose, vinous and harmonious, cigar box, hint of pepper, slighty nutty and spicy; dry and slightly metallic palate, retains its tannic grip; light finish but good length. Has survived well.

WIMPS La Trompette Cornucopia 2015. Served next to the Figeac '76, and fared better. Tertiary notes of saddle leather and scorched earth. Resolved tannins and a mid-length finish.

Lots of musty tertiary nose of moss, dark fruit, musk. Was nice in the first 30 minutes then fell apart relatively quickly.

Yves's Memorial; 11/10/2018-11/11/2018 (MO): Lovely light elegant wine, with some herbal cab elements mixed in. Still quite enjoyable but on the decline.

Holding on and quite a pleasant drink
Light amber with barely a hint of red.
Light balanced savory flavors, but starting to dry out in the finish.
