February 26, 2022 - A bit of a voyage into the unknown, opening this old bottle.
Delicate work to remove the cork in one piece, but did so. Then carefully decanted, leaving sediments and crystallisation (which were not excessive behind).
Marked browning around the edges, and a slight brown tinge to the overall colour. Initially offered little on the nose, but after some time in the glass menthol aromas emerged, along with subtle final notes; reminiscent, overall, of mothballs.
Though clearly well past its peak, with fruit long gone, and power faded, flavours – dominated by woody oak – were still in balance. At its best through the mid-palate, trailing out to a relatively short, dry finish. -

September 4, 2021 - 还有一定的新鲜感,黑樱桃和黑李子融化成了黑果酱,加上蓝莓阿尔卑斯糖,带点青味。中段开始有着金属铁锈、烟熏肉、甘草、旧皮革、肉桂粉之类的,还有点奶油味,有点旧皮革。入口中,单宁还是多且坚实,布满口腔,开始呈颗粒状随后转变为细粉,带有紧致的收敛感。果味为黑果和黑果干,陈年之下显得没那么分明和厚实,还有点蜜枣味,轻微有一点干花香,除了点嫩枝的青味外,还有不少植被气息。后段甘草、烟熏、烟草碎和旧皮革等。89/100

July 31, 2021 - Unfortunately there is only so much life in even a stellar vintage from a good, but unclassified growth. This was over the hill

February 4, 2017 - Getting thin with a touch of bricking. Lightly decanted. Fruity nose with a hint of tartness creeping in, but not unpleasant at all. A nice old-style Bordeaux. Currants and leather, with earth and a touch of cherry. This has aged and lasted longer and better than hoped for.
