The level of wine had lowered only 4cm and both the capsule and the cork seemed to be in good condition. The information found on the cork confirmed the origin of the bottle. The colour of the wine was already a little brown and muddy. But the bouquet had something so magical to it - overflowing chocolate, coffee and warmth – that it would have melted any hardened heart. One of the most intoxicating and overpowering bouquets I have experienced – indeed to bring oneself to tasting it became almost too hard. A very roasted, old pinot style, delicate and gentle, slightly over matured wine. Fading but lots of charm and length. Nevertheless even after five hours in glass the bouquet still swept me off my feet. A wine that left one longing as for a lost first love! The second bottle which I tasted in 2004 was in much better condition. Very vigorous and long. An extraordinary and fantastic experience.
