A bit of acetone, a hint of VA that eventually dissipates. As it breathes in the glass, there’s some raspberry, strawberry jam, prune, dill, it feels somewhat excessively aged for an 18 year old Mazoyères-Chambertin. Storage issues?
Some tannin on the palate, chewy and woody - gets lighter after one hour.
Like it’s underage and overly aged at the same time. Still, on the heavier side of Burgundy, which saddens me.

200 Burgundy Grand Crus from vintage 2000, 4-day blind tasting (Singapore): Savory, earthy, end of life, soy sauce. Drink up.

Dark garnet with a rusty rim.
