Nose of leather, cedar, smoke, grilled bacon fat, red and black fruit sweet and sour fruit, and mushrooms, more of the same on the palate, big body, lovely to sip and savor while watching Monday Night Football, great tertiary flavors, complexity, and excitement generated by this 40 year old Burgundy, elegant, and a long, long, long, long, flavorful finish and aftertaste.

Old and New Red Burgundy Dinner (Yan's China Bistro, Walnut Creek, Ca.): I brought this bottle to the tasting, one left in the cellar for another day, immediately impressive old style nose of leather, cedar, smoke, grilled bacon fat, red and black fruit and mushrooms, the nose did not fade during the 3 hour dinner, same on the palate, big body, an amazing 38 year old Red Burgundy, with air this wine became richer and sweeter, it produced favorable comments from everyone, elegant, brings back memories of many other old Burgundy wines enjoyed. First place.
