Had this 375 tucked away and decided to finally open it up. Unfortunately I waited too long. Cork was soaked about 1/4 of the way up and all I could taste was wet newspaper.

This wine reveals a wonderful and complex nose full of mature orange blossom, cinnamon, kardamom and violets(!). The palate is full and lush with a superb integration between the different components. The length on the finish is about 60 seconds and lingers on for a long time. This is for sure an adorable effort which tonight revealed the very essence and necessity of aging - the complexity was just amazing...

Fairly nice, from what I remember. Not as good as the Yquem '99 I had around the same time (fairly unsurprisingly).
