Noizè Legends (Noizé): Slightly clearer delineated nose than the 52 with a pleasant old cupboard dustiness, black tea but still dark bramble fruit kicking in. Very alive on the palate with pure bramble fruit - very clean and very persistent finish. There is a poetry to this wine with an internal consistency and structure that is utterly convincing.

Gifted a bottle of this- which drank spectacularly, great concentration, black Cherry, currant, cassis, spice, truffle , cigar, sous bois truly went on and on and on with a lovely long finish and a nice fresh hit of eucalyptus.
Tannins we’re melting and the acid was so fresh. This is in a beautiful spot with no real need to drink quickly.

Excellent mature fruit that is still plenty fresh while showing lots of layers -- tobacco, wet cedar, mulch, and earthy mushroom. Gorgeous wine in a late peak.

From a well-stored bottle with upper shoulder fill. Fully mature, this poured a clear orange-brick colour. Ready to go after a 30-minute decant. Pungent nose of cassis, cedar, tobacco, earth, and some gravelly notes. Beautiful textural impression on the palate with a medium sweet, cedar-infused finish. Qualitatively not on par with the '61 but not a mile behind either and a fabulous bottle in its own right.

It amazes me how glacially this wine ages, and how consistent it is. There was a little funk on the nose initially, but that mostly blew off. Dark tones fruit, a just a hint of earthiness. Soft, with no tannin, but solid acidity. Elegant. I wouldn’t say this is extremely complex, but I enjoyed this wine, and it was probably my second favorite wine of the night.
