Very slightly past its best, I think, especially for the first 10-15 minutes, but ultimately provided a lot of pleasure. A full-bodied wine despite its age - I hadn't realised the grapes are from a grand cru site until I subsequently researched the wine, but that is consistent with my experience of drinking it. A lot of apple flavour, some ginger spice, a bit oxidised, and long on the finish. No perceptible sweetness, and no petrol either. Mellow and delicious.

Still drinkable, but no longer gives any pleasure

Probably on its way down but still enjoyable.
