Bright, lively, and wondrously edgy...all of which indicate a long maturation curve, no less than fifteen years, likely twenty. I have tasted this alongside the same vintage PdB Normale, which delivers high QPR and boasts similar professional wine marketer scores, but cannot match it, in any measurable category. In this context, that wine's current 91.8 CT score, compared to the present wine's 92.2 CT score, does not reflect the significant quality difference between the two.
Right now, and for the next several years, opening bottles roughly equates to waste, for all but the most intrepid, non-tanninphobes. Ridiculous QPR!
