  Bottle opened early afternoon for the dinner in same day.
  Dark ruby in the glass, good nail. Tobacco, chocolate, flintstone, blackberry jam, leather. In the mouth rich and delicious, earthy, little tannins. Harmonious and elegant. Very long ending. A very experience, drink mature wine is a privilege.

  Shocking to see the suggested drinking range end in 2015 as this is lovely and vibrant nearly a decade later. Colour is a medium to deep ruby.
  
  Powerful, Smokey and meaty nose full of bacon , black pepper, garrigue and ripe blackberry.
  
  Palate shows wonderfully smooth and integrated tannins and alcohol with a fresh vein of acidic backbone.
  
  Flavours are well matched to the nose - meaty and smoky with a medley of black fruit.
  
  Tremendous length. No sign of tertiary notes.
  
  Drink for a decade at least.

  During a Zoom blind tasting. The nose was nice with tobacco, meat, bacon and sour cherry, clearly tertiary. The palate was medium bodied, strong acidity vs the fruit left. Decent but not grand. Drink up.

  Tasted it beside 1982, 1983, 1989 and 1991. Pristine bottle. The 1992 was a lot mature than the 89, the color was dark crimson. The nose and taste was developed whit salty peanuts, brioche, orange peel, warm berries, and maybe some meaty tones with a hint of garrigues. This was a strange but good experience, would love to try it again.
