  This was the 86, Still quite tannic considering the age and required a decant for at least 3 hours before the nose and Nuances came out. Dense dark berries and a little savoury meat and soy sauce.

  Double Birthday Celebration for Fiona and Me - 2015 (Alex and Fiona's in AMK): An interesting contrast with the very young Michel Noellat Suchots that we had just before – this was actually quite nice in an old Burgundy way. It had a matured bouquet of dried cherries and berries and an unusual whiff of mint chocolates sprinkled with dried herbs, meat and spice. The palate showed a satisfyingly juicy fullness, with mellow flavours of sour plums and haw flakes with a twist of something almost salty in there. Not the most complex, but it had nice weight and balance for a 1975 wine. Decent finish too, with earthy notes ringed by a nice amount of Vosne spice. Time to drink up while this is still giving a good bit of pleasure – I am not sure it is going to last for much longer.
