Drink along with :

Haut-Brion Blanc 1996
d'Yquem 1955
Haut-Brion 1989
Petrus 1990
DRC : Richebourg 2001

Ahhh....even I can feel how good it is but not 100% because of the aftertaste of all those great wines. After 3 hours, the most beautiful fruity of Burgundy scent shows up, very dramatic, multi-dimensions, 3 or more layers, very tempting. Perfect balance, perfect texture, the unforgetable sweetness.

The super elegant finished...it's beautiful and long but doesn't like the blockbuster Tache 1990...Maybe this 1978 is getting ready and more soft or meybe the affect from the aftertaste of Petrus 1990 and Haut-Brion 1989 remaining but anyway, one of the truly greatest wine indeed.

Drink now - 2012
(94-97+/100)

Ps. performance is only 90% ?!?
