Derek in Paris, chez Julian: day 2, Saturday 12th September 2009.

First we opened:We had a stroll, to see the Eiffel tower, during which we bought a 1997 Rozès, then the Frenchman arrived so Derek decided that we needed to open two more 1977s.The Frenchman left after about two hours.

G77, soon after decanting. Nose had very noticeable acidity, plenty of sugar but no fruit. Also tasted rather flat. Could this have been a marginally tainted bottle? Certainly not up to the usual standards of G77.
