Belle robe vermillon avec léger reflets tuilé d'intensité moyennement pâle -
Splendide nez de rose fané, fruits rouges séchés, épice douce. Ensuite des notes mentholées incroyables qui apportent une complexité digne des plus grands.
Une bouche aérienne, délicate et tout en dentelle qui englobe par sa fraicheur et l'intensité de ses saveurs tertiaires.
Une magnifique bouteille que j'ai adorée à pleine maturité

Cork soaked through. Signs of seepage under the capsule. Decanted. Slightly off smell at first which quickly dissipated. Nice red fruit (cherry, raspberry), forest floor, nice spice, earth, slight truffle/ mushroom. Good acidity. Bright. Lingering finish. Really enjoyable.

Crystal clear in the glass, displaying all the colors of sunset: red, orange, and slight amber. Stunningly gorgeous nose with: cherry cola, mint, fresh forest floor, caramel, and faint mushroom/truffle. Absolutely sublime in the mouth. Utterly alluring, with polished glycerine texture. Long, haunting finish, which echoes initial notes.
This bottle exhibited all of the positive traits of age: complexity, integrity, subtlety, wisdom, and warmth. Absent were any musty or otherwise unpleasant qualities. All-in-all, an otherworldly bottle.
Drank over two days (kept in stopped decanter at 4C).
97-99pts.
