2 bottles consumed at dinner for 9 Chevaliers at Chez Monsier, in Paris. Delicious, round, rather rich, excellent food wine with an acid lift at the end keeping it lively. Notes on other years says grown on a limestone patch and that the producer suggests drinking at about 6 years, but these bottles showed no signs of decline, probably at peak. A gourmand wine for food and conversation. Tasty. 88-89.

Magnum recently bought by ND, shared at dinner for 9 Chevaliers in Paris. Super classy cassis nose, really superb, acid overtaking the fruit but "pretty darn good. Currants, tobacco, new belt leather. lasts forever on palate, very Left bank. What a treat!

3 bottles purchased by ND recently, shared with fellow Chevaliers at a dinner for 9 in Paris. 1st bottle cork fell into the wine, not shown by ND, NR. 2nd bottle brown, full of sediment, tertiary brown sugar aromatics but not on palate. Gentle, long some good depth (and very good with my onion soup). Controversial and clearly in decline, but sound. 3rd bottle, pale rose color, had a fabulous redfruit nose with hints of strawberries but no fruit, all acid on palate. Fun to try!
