  June 9, 2023 - Similar to the 1945 served alongside, for me this was more interesting due to vintage rather than palate.

  December 27, 2016 - Wax covered an authentic drc capsule. Cork came out intact. Lovely Ruby color with orange tint at the edge. Sweet aroma of ripe berries, honey. Very much alive and blossoming. Palate was greeted with an initial slight sweetness that transformed into ripe, red berries flavors. Very smooth and pure. Mild acidity provided some freshness. No tannins were detected. This had a delicious factor but was not heavy in any way. Very, very nice bottle of Pinot noir. This was served after a 1959 Latour. I have to give it to the Latour as the better of the two.

  April 28, 2016 - Pale Brown; fill level at very low shoulder, almost id-bottle. Previous collector hand dipped all his wine bottles in wax in looks like maybe from the 1960's, original capsule was underneath; cork disintegrated and was floating inside the bottle. OK, was this complete vinegar? No, more like sherry. But good sherry, with some remnants of red berry fruits, a little sour, slight aldehyde, but actually a lovely drink. This clearly was not what is should be, but somehow it survived and was very pleasing to drink.
