Thursday, August 20, 2015 - A Dinner Focused on Two 1990 First Growths (Home): Half bottle. Deep amber/gold. Prominent secondary botrytis notes and a strong element of fig. Very sweet and unctuous, lively balancing acidity. Great length. A true essence, but this small format bottle could have used more complexity to elevate it to the level of its mythic reputation. Do not let the dark color fool you, though; even out of a small format, this is still very much alive and kicking.
