Medium garnet, brilliant, medium tears. Yoghurt, coffee, mocca in the nose, cacao. Medium to slim body, very well balanced, silky even glossy, very decent fruit, acidity and tannins excellent balanced. Very long fine smoky finish. This reminds me of a very fine Guigal La Ladonne.
Score: 50 + 4 for optic + 14 for bouquet + 18 for taste + 9 for overall = total score of 95.
Pegau vertical tasting Graz 20040927. Single blind. Decanted shortly before tasting. Wine Star Chardonnay glass similar to ISO standard tasting glass. Wine #4 in flight #2. Sequence predefined by the organiser of the tasting, not by chance.

(not blind): Brilliant light ruby, dense tears. Decent dark dried fruits in the nose, very fine, honeycomb out of the empty glass. Medium body, decent red fruit, crisp acidity, firm tannins, very well balanced. Fine velvety aftertaste. Could go as a rather fine Burgundy. Score: 50 + 3 for optic + 14 for bouquet + 18 for taste + 8 for overall = total score of 93.
I hesitated to open this bottle because some 95 vintage Rhone wines seem a bit closed now but this was very fine.
