  This bottle looks young, and need time to open. at the beginning the finish is short, we think its corked, but after bottle breathing for 1 hours, it begins to open. Intensive aroma of leather, game, forest, animal with a lil bit fruits. On palate it's too light, no concentration.

  Food: Italian
  Condition: perfect
  Duration: 4 hours
  Notes: never really liked Grivot. This bottle wasn't great but I thought it was neat and at least well integrated. Still pretty energetic so I'm sure this can last another 8-10 years at least.

  This was much more ready to drink than the previous Grivots that came before it. Still powerful, but perhaps that sturdiness and ruggedness had mellowed considerably rendering it much more pleasant & enjoyable. Perhaps the downside was that this came after the Hudelot and pretty much nothing else mattered in the sense that I was still awed by the Hudelot to take much notice of this...
