Very low fill, medium amber. Very rich, smoky overlay on lush fruit; slightly maderized. Powerful, delicious slightly smoky flavor is very expansive with forceful fruit notes; rather viscous texture and bright acidity. Enormous length.

OCTOBER REVOLUTION CENTENARY TASTING. medium gold, hair darker than Gagnard drunk with, and softer, creamier nose of great poise counterpoints delicately spicy floral and lilting, still fresh, citrus and white peach notes. Fabulously delicious, rich, pleasantly smoke-tinged taste. This shows the power and concentration that Bâtard should have, but that few actually do. Very complex and unique, a lovely wine; à point, but lots of life left.

Showed aromas of orange marmalade, orange peel and saffron on opening. It shut down after 15 minutes to open again with more citrus notes.

Still in a gorgeous place. whites flowers and fruit. Not too golden of a color for the age.
