A surprising amount of life for its age. A consummate old Rhone nose with its Brett-y, gamey charm. The mid-palate starts to fade and just before the "not bad for its age moment" sets in a wave of richness and fruit comes rolling back. While I respect and sometimes enjoy what Guigal does I feel comfortable saying they don't make 'me like this anymore.
