The Beaune Greves Vigne de l’Enfant Jesus 1988 is now in decline. The nose is very mature with complex notes of plum, sous-bois and sadly also some quite strong maderized notes. On the palate quite intense – with some fruit left – slightly maderized and starting to dry out in the finish. The maderized notes are reduced significantly after some time in the glass – and at this point it’ a drinkable wine. Bottom line – too old but still tasteable.
