Brought to a tasting, side-by-side with a 1982 Chateau Sociando Mallet. Sadly, both bottles were corked (although the Buehler much more pronounced than the Bordeaux). Unfortunate, as I had this same wine a year ago and it was stellar.

Nose still delicate and pretty, but definitely faded. Palate alive, but just barely. No oxidation. I gave it 90 points just for being alive after all these years. Pleasant. Special only in its rarity.

Great value. I think I paid about $42 for this. Excellent ripe fruit. Pears & apples & good mouth feel, relatively rich. A good intro for some much better Meursaults that followed....but those were also much more expensive. Solid wine.
