Seemed over the hill, oxidation notes, darker colour, very rich and tropical fruits nose with peach pit flavour. I did agree with other comments hat the wine had a sweet nose and dry taste. Odd.

I had 6 half-bottle of this wine. I drank 5 of them too soon as I did not think it would evolve well. It was rather thin, dry and lacking in richness. I was rather disappointed. I opened this last, almost forgotten bottle, and did not expect this: wonderful nose of petroleum and orange zest. Rich mouth with perfect balance between fruit, acidity and a touch of spices. Great lenght. Lesson learned. Grand cru Brand: wait a little.

Absolutely brilliant, just starting to open its drinking window and will continue to last for quite a few more years.
