This is a classic funky old Burgundy, beautiful bouquet of damp forest floor, spice and a hint of stewed fruit/ smooth complexity on the palate, deep and sweet mid palate, fine acidity, pure, dry and long. 13% outstanding and very much to my taste.

now the complexity and earthyness comes out. Dam this was nice and easy to drink. Not tight, acidic or tannic at all, just pure beetroot and some spicebox. drink now

No reason to drink this now, quitea complex nose but a bit bitter/acidic on the mid to end palet. Maybe needs more time. Not up to the mouthfeel/creamyness of the 1990.

Delicious brambly tinned strawberry fruit and bright acidity. This is on great form right now and is a lovely drink.
