Thursday, November 2, 2023 - Grand Jury du Vin - Republic of Georgia; 11/1/2023-11/9/2023 (Republic of Georgia then stopover in Paris and Dijon): Another perfectly stored example. Perfectly mature nose displaying red and black fruit, strawberry, a hint of cassis, mushroom, dirty damp cellar, sous bois, sweet spices and earth. There is a hint of Brett, Very good concentration, generous red and black fruit, soft and warm, medium acidity, earthy mineral, fully resolved tannins and a medium long generous red and black fruit driven finish. IMO, the 70s were really challenging decade for Bordeaux and a lot of wines show Brett/dirty damp cellar that kills the fruit expression. This could have been at least a few points higher.
