"Moderate bricking but still a healthy ruby core. The cool and fully mature aromas display the initial hints of sous-bois, spice, animale and ample amounts of Gevrey earth that precede the delicious, powerful and deep broad-scaled flavors that are still vibrant and well-muscled while culminating in a mouth coating and wonderfully persistent finish. This has always been an impressive wine though this is the first bottle of it that I have seen in many a year. However, I am happy to report that well-stored bottles are alive and well and should continue to drink brilliantly for years to come."
