Top shoulder...cork badly infected for about 90%, was not expecting much...
however, after about 45 minutes in the decanter....great nose of prunes, figs, provencal herbs. Medium body, sweetness on the palate, 12% alc. Great joy to drink with leg of lamb stewed for a number of hours in the Tagine. What an unexpected pleasure!
If you have bottles in better condition than my description this wine may last a few more years, but why wait?

Happy new year! Great showing for this wine. Gorgeous nose, full of figgs, prunes, spices, leather. Indeed resembling older vintages of chateau Musar (e.g. 1988!) . Medium body, tannins completely softened, mouthwatering acidity making it a wine to drink with food. Even better than our last bottle opened 2 years ago, seems to be able to last 5+ more years. Cork completely saturated, lots of sediment, 1 hour decant.
