2021 Jadotfest (La Trompette, London): Mid garnet. Initially that sweet fruited matur wine nose. Some density and structure to it. Lots of freshly cut mushroom on the nose that never quite subdues. The sweet fruit fades with air and it takes on more structure. Quite variable, but ***1/2 at best. More to it than the Theurons, but more ephemeral too.

During a FICOFI walkabout tasting, only brief impressions. From Magnum. This was a star, Lots of gamey, earthy aromas, spice, red fruit. The palate was alive, well integrated, mature tannins, long finish. Great showing. 96+

Burgundy WIMPS, Complet table (La Trompette, London): Deep garnet. A properly autumnal woodland nose and just a touch of caramel. Quite silky. A freshness and bright acidity that transcends the vintage. Consistent with a bottle a couple of years ago. ****

Served blind. Mushroom soup! Still dark colour. Nicely resolved on the palate but way too mushroomy for me.

from mag - showing very well indeed. 1976 produced some good wine irrespective of the heat and I would look out for this.
