On 60th birthday along with comtes Lafon 2010 Montrachet and Armand Rousseau 2011 Clos des Ruchottes. Still alive and enjoyable. Some fruit but mostly wet leaves.

Delicate red and orange style fruit with tobacco dust, cedar chest, cabinet spice/clove and white pepper show a more primary profile than I would have thought for the vintage. Tactile spiciness that shows very fine, sophisticated mouthfeel. Shows maturity but very little sous bois today. Going nowhere in a hurry. 93(+?).

This showed very well; spicy aged red fruit, iron, white pepper with notes of cedar and orange peel; elegant despite brisk acidity and still-present fine-grained tannins. Impressive showing! 93+ Addendum: still going strong next day after argon overlay and refrigeration.

Rubin center, tegelbrun kant. Mörka bär, fyllig smörig ton, frukt kvar, sötma lite åt sirap. Kola.
