Saturday, August 13, 2022 - Drank over 2 hours. Opened 8 hours in advance and served at approximately 16.5⁰C. Perfect neck level fill.

Light red with very subtle bricking at the edge. There's a decent amount of fruit left for a 47 year old wine. The fruit is mostly red, cherries in particular. There's some cedar and a tiny bit of tobacco. The tannins are almost fully resolved and the finish is very good (20 seconds +). Even though 1975 is not an exceptional year for Bordeaux and it might be time to drink these up, this is a very good mature Margaux.
