  Consistent with previous note. More Cote de Beaune with iron, earth and plum fruit. Showing better than the previous bottle with more freshness.

  Gareth's glorious game dinner (Canary Wharf): Something not quite right with the nose of this bottle; I would have said heat damage, but it only just came out of climate-controlled storage, so perhaps an unlucky bacterial issue. Despite that, the wine was enjoyable to drink, especially towards and on the long, juicy, still primary finish. 1996 acidity was pretty prominent, but luckily we had the food to deal with that.

  Single blind side by side Rousseau Ruchottes 02. At first enjoyable in a rustic way with brambly notes, black cherry fruit. It felt less refined vs Rousseau initially and unfortunately it went downhill rather fast and after 20 minutes in a Zalto Burg glass it got very thin and almost borderline undrinkable, certainly not enjoyable. I would probably refrain from scoring this unless there was this consistent underachievement sense in other CT notes and an average score of below 90. So given this my hope that this was not a representative bottle might be unfounded and the sisters might just not have produced a stellar Ruchottes in 96?
