1959 Moelleux 1er Trie: caramel, creme caramel, Madeira cake, bread pudding, dried apricots. Burnt orange. Wonderful richness, balanced acidity, like an aged Tokaji in style. Lovely.

Honeycombe, treacle, rich orange marmalade, furniture polish, medicinal touches of iodine, quince jelly, smoky, peaty. Rich but not cloying and overall balanced and fresh. Super ripe tropical fruits, spices pineapple and mango, butterscotch and apple skin.

'61 Bourg, moelleux. How sad it is when great wine is corked. Happy New Year.

Really interesting, very sherry-like in character. Has definitely held up well.

What a joy with some beautiful French cheeses, caramel color, exotic aromas, great acidity and weight, long rich finish, what a layered wine, thanks Jeff for digging deep in your cellar.
