April 23, 2021 - From Art's cellar. One-hour decant through a screened funnel. Some sediment. During decant, a boysenberry nose wafted across the table. Wine was clear, dark bowl lightening to the rim, but no amber. In the glass, nose of dark berries, leather, dried flowers and (unfortunately) some mildew. Over our 2 hours of pre-dessert dining, the mildew aromas subsided significantly but never fully dissipated. In the mouth, wine was perfectly smooth; tannins completely melted and integrated. Flavors of dried plums, some vanilla and rose hips on the long finish. Had the TCA not reared its ugly head, this wine would have been a solid 95. But one must judge wines by how they tasted, not how one wants them to have tasted. Wine was certainly enjoyable, and well-kept bottles should be singing when consumed.

January 1, 2020 - This is a wonderful old Bordeaux that is extraordinarily enjoyable with soft tannins and wonderfully balanced fruit. I don't think it will age further, but it did not fade over a New Year's eve dinner and instead opened further into a very approachable cabernet/merlot blend with good structure after many years.
