Singing. What a nose — dried and fresh black cherry, meat and loads of alluring stem spice. Medium bodied yet so intense, seamless and poised on the palate.

Classic Dujac nose of leather and a touch of green grass. The palate is nicely ripe on the initial attack but not fully expressive. The wine faded quickly as it was exposed to air.

Leflaive & Rousseau dinner at Jade Palace. First of 3 "ringers" of the evening. Ruby red with quite heavy bricking. This was floral on the nose, with dried roses and rose petals. Sweetened strawberries, cranberry juice and forest floor, but with hints of minerals and wet soil. I didn't think this was Rousseau, but couldn't place Dujac. Quite mature on the palate, with red fruits, earth, forest floor, red tea. At 20 years, this is in its drinking window, and maybe slightly over it.

Nice mature wine. For me lacks some precision.
