This was bricked though to the center with only a small core of ruby remaining. The aromatic profile was displaying plenty of sous bois along with discreet spice and earth scents on the secondary red berry fruit-suffused nose. The texture and persistence of the middle weight flavors did not strike me as those of a grand cru caliber wine yet this was also during the period where de Vog¨¹¨¦ was having its difficulties; moreover, they did not make especially good '79s (see herein for other reviews) and thus this bottle left me scratching my head. The cork didn't seem quite right and if I had to guess, I would say that this was a burgundy from 1979 but something other than a grand cru though I stress that is just speculation on my part. I have not had this wine since the 1980s and thus it's impossible to compare almost 30 years later.
