Happy 11th anniversary to us—this has drunk well for us in the past, and the last bottle tonight is thankfully no different. Drinking standalone tonight post dinner (with a Hudson chard), and it's showing perfectly aged, complex, and delicious. Gorgeous brick red color with transparency. Aromas changing and developing with each whiff, showing earthy funk, dill and fresh herbs, red and dark red fruits, black tea, orange peel, Indian and dried spices, tobacco, eucalyptus, lemon, and graphite. Crazy. Light to medium body, acid, and finish, with flavors of red and dried red fruits, black tea, lemon, orange, tangerine, and dried spices. This is what it's all about right here.

Drank out of Grassl 1855s. Continues to be excellent. Probably 5 years for well stored bottles. 2007 vintage rocks. JG, you da man.

陈的很好,短期看没有严重衰退迹象,有勃艮第老酒的风格。菌菇,野味,咸鲜为主,有少量西梅。酸度有点下坡,应该尽快喝。总体作为餐酒很适合
