Had this recently with lamb (stuffed with dried tomatos and stuff), and was less than impressed: Aromatics of overripe plum and dried herbs, but fairly imprecise and unfocused, with sweet and oxidised port notes that didn't work for me.
I think very highly of Gauby, but this one doesn't seem to age well. Something wrong with the bottle, perhaps? A bad hair day? Or maybe a reminder that "natural" wines are at all times capricious, moody fellows.
