Last tasted from Jeroboam in 2010. Wet vegetation and wild strawberries on the nose. Lingeringly rich too. Date jam and so much deep fruit and leaf intensity on the palate. Almost meaty on contact with the air. La Tâche tells a tale. Heavy roast coffee beans at the end, with all the woodland fruits and autumnal notes one looks for in mature DRC. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
