Very softened, plummy fruit betrays the age on this wine. It is also very gamey; Burgundian notes grow into Worcester sauce (like Château Musar) and it begins to make me think of pet hamster cage. Good acid cuts through the palate. A note of anise on the finish. Soft and well-aged; although it continues to improve as it is open, with the gaminess only growing, I wouldn’t keep this a lot longer.
“There you go,” says N1, “the right bank is ok sometimes.”
