November 6, 2010 - "Open something that hurts club" Seattle Chapter get together (Morton's Steakhouse Seattle): The ullage on this bottle was suspect, so hopes weren't overly high, but how can you not get excited at drinking a '61 Tache?!. The color showed it's age, as did the nose. A few compelling qualities but for the most part it was on the backside of the hill. Still had weight and a great mouthfeel but the fruit was fairly dusty and tired. I was reluctant to hit the flawed key as this was still a memorable wine to try even if it didn't fire on all cylinders.
