There are a few good things about turning 40. This buttered chanterelle, red pear beauty is one of them. Still fresh, dry and balanced after all these years... Long, intricate & complex!

1985 vintage. Meunier tasting. Pale copper hue. Cognac liqueur, sherry oxidative notes, ripe red berry compote. Soy sauce with air. Very mature although still fruit. On the palate, off dry, medium plus acidity, full concentration of flavour, medium minus bubbles, medium body, good finish. This is interesting. Not sure I would actively seek it out again. But it's definitely interesting.
