  Académie des Cinquante Claret Tasting (Restaurant Rijsel, Amsterdam, NL): Tasted blind. Magnum. Completely mature, carries the warmth of the vintage well, tannins are firm but ripe, green streak on the finish.

  Tasted 10/12/20
  C: Garnet rim, fully mature.
  N: Not much; slightly gamey with a backnote of spearmint.
  T: Rich, fat and soft-textured, with baked flavours of plums, leather and fruitcake underpinned with a note of brett. Lacking acidity and freshness developing an unpleasant bitter note on finish.
  I: Way past its best; very soft and lacks freshness. Marred further, by talc and astringency developing on the finish

  Lovely Christmas day wine. Dark crimson with tinge of brown at the rim and strong tears. powerful nose of dark fruit and full bodied on the palate with lovely long finish
