April 22, 2024 - Alive and kickin', even looking like slowly going down the hill. Red fruit galore, with some leather. Very clear bottle, no any funkiness. High, fress acidity and red fruited finish. Very Burgundian vintage this time.

April 5, 2024 - Always a pleasure to return to this eternal cuvée made from a blend of CS, Cinsault and Carignan, aged for 12 months in FR oak. Medium garnet colour. Medium+ intensity aroma of cherries, strawberries, dried wildflowers, hint pomegranate and tamarind. Medium body, fresh and still full of fruits just as aroma, lean structure and melted medium tannins points to its age. Concludes with high pronounced acidity, spiced red fruit flavours and medium length finish.

June 24, 2021 - medium rosé in colour with orange rim. Refined, elegant and stylish mature bouquet of dried red fruit and gentle oak. Palate is dry, mature with red fruit flavours, stylish acidity and mature tannins. Lengthy dry finish - a very stylish old wine.

March 28, 2021 - Birthday birth year wine for my lyonnaise girlfriend. Bought ex Château in 2021. Complex mix of sensuality and depth on the nose. Meat with a touch of Musar’s typical saddle and roast beef. Unmistakeably Musar on the palate - but with a refinement that comes only with age. Plainly reconditioned lightly and thankfully recorked - musar’s corks normally crumbling on removal. My choice was between Montrose 1975 or this. I made the right choice. The other two bottles I bought would make it through to her 60th.
