Still had a bit of life. Opened and poured right away. Still some fruit and great nose. I don’t think these have much more life but if you have it, drink up

Cork completely saturated with mold showing on top. I was not prepared to give up on it. This wine needed 2 hour decant to let the bitterness evaporate. My patience was rewarded. There was still fruit and mild tannin in this 53 year old Bordeaux. I cannot say if there is much life left for these so if you have it, drink up.

Magnificent! Decanted an hour and was absolutely sublime. I wish I had more!
