Four 1971, one strange Gaja and Pavie


1971 Louis Trapet, Gevrey-Chambertin;
Pale ruby, broad brick rim, slightly of cooked strawberry jam, earth, elegant nose. Nice acidity, lean body, holding surprisingly well, even with somewhat edgy finish. 84

1971 Château Dutruch Grand Poujeaux;
Ruby with orange rim, truffles, anise, prunes and some dust. Good acidity, tannins soon gone, OK balance and fruit, good length. 85

1971 Château Pavie;
Ruby with orange rim,prunes and figs, more body than Dutruch, but actually not that much more going on. Nice acidity, somewhat rustic texture, a bit lean, very different from today's Pavie, good length. 87

1971 Gaja, Nebbiolo Sori del Turco;
I have never seen or heard of this wine before, orange colour, oxidized, sour, on the verge of living at all.
