With the Giles and Becks . Smooth and delicious. Acid and tannins really have went way down. Still good fruit. — 8 years ago

This 2008 was cellared for almost five years after purchased in 2012. Consumed Nov 2015, the best way to describe this delight is that "it melts in your mouth". You do not even feel it as it goes down, the taste begins with its scents as soon as it hits your palate. Delightfully fruity with cherry, blackberry and jam. — 10 years ago

Very nice and balanced the whole way thru. It could have rested a lot longer for sure, glad I have a few more laying down. Good night friends see you in a year or two. — 11 years ago

Super-weird bottle. Mid-shoulder, crumbly cork, and the colour of freshly pressed strawberry juice - extremely pale as slightly cloudy! The immediate scent was quite off-putting but after 30 minutes it stormed back! Scents of autumn mulch, burning vine roots, sour cherries, and raspberry compote. A weird sourness and heady acidity on the front of the palette but it still keeps together well. Clearly badly kept but still really interesting to drink! A true testament to The quality of Mouton under the stewardship of the late Baron. I wonder if this is what some of the better kept bottles might be like in 100 years' time!? — 10 years ago

Another pick off this epic Rioja list. Under $100 and fresh, pure, graceful. — 10 years ago

Many other Beaujolais I've had smell like bubble-yum or bananas and have some weird, flatness, like club soda. Not burnt, but just, I don't know, like you're tasting the carbon. This is clean and direct. It's tart and sour-cherry, but mysteriously has almost no aftertaste. There's no oak flavor to speak of, (it's vinified in large-format neutral oak) but (once you let it develop) it still seems to have depth and richness like a wine that sees new oak. It needs about an hour of air for the acidity to calm down. — 11 years ago

Under the radar but a great paulliac.... Lead pencil and other characteristics dominate this glorious effort that opened up after two hours to reveal silky fruit and amazing depth... Yum. — 10 years ago

9.6

Soft, complex. Still has strong flavor and balance. Very complex nose but dominated by plum, tobacco and green pepper. Probably at the height of maturity for the bottle. A wonderful wine and under rated vintage. — 10 years ago
