At Jade Palace over a blinded Gevrey vs MSD Grand Cru theme. Dark red, with lots of browning. Nose was advanced and matured. Lots of barnyard. Earth, truffles, sour cherries and plum. Some maple syrup. Palate showed its age, with plenty of matured fruit, leather and mushrooms. The tannins and acidic had resolved, but the wine lacked that bit of fruit to really perform against the other Gevreys which appeared much fresher and balanced.
