10/6/2023 - MemorialWineFan wrote: 90 pointsWas a good wine, but still a baby. I had a 1967 in 2017. The wine was still singing, not macerated and broken down. Tasting this 2008, I could taste the stuff that would allow this bottle to go 50 years. My advice is to make this one of the last bottles you drink. As we wonder which ones need to be consume due to age or sub-standard corks, don't worry about this one. |
