  February 16, 2021 - Color: orange color wtih brick red on the rim. Mild turbid. Not too much sediment
  Nose : abudant tertiary aroma of forest floor, wet leaves, mushroom but still lots of cherry and floral notes and ripe plum
  Palate: crazy, still feel very young and fresh with lots of cherry and sweet and fine tannin. Medium acidity and very long finished compose of cherry, mushroom and tea leaves.

  April 15, 2008 - French Bakery BYO 2000+prior Bordeaux Right Bank(Libournais) (French Bakery, Kane concourse, Bay Harbor Islands, Florida): Past its prime. Tasted of kerosene. Similar to the 1945 Pape Clement, Bob Dickinson served at Mike Bittel's Bernard Magrez Wine Luncheon last year. Came in last in flight. Miles away from the 82 which was WOTF.
