  1982 Bordeaux + some Pirates (Restaurant Brunnenstube, Beinstein): Another beautiful suprise: Deep, ruby garnet color. Very fine and elegant nose. On the palate bold and firm, but also round and balanced. Good, fine acidity, medium tanning, very good length. 91-92
  Great PQR!

  I thought this was delicious and definitely still drinking well. Obviously time has smoothed out the tannins, so it's a subtle wine. But the Bordeaux flavor was lovely, we had it with steak and it was an excellent pairing. I think it's worth it for this price point and i would buy again, although I got it for $50 on Industry Wine Merchant

  The wine finishes long. It tastes like prune, tobacco, mineral, tea and lead pencil. The wine has round texture.

  Wow, just an incredibly enjoyable bottle with zero expectations. Won as part of a mixed bottle auction lot with 1 bottle still left. Very pure with beautiful floral nose with whiffs of cigar and camphor. Even after being open for a couple of hours it didn't fall apart as expected. Palate had a seamless and smooth smokiness to it. Not a blockbuster but just a joy to savor and linger over. For $11 just a total steal of a bottle

  We were surprised at how fresh this was. Decanted and sampled in about an hour--still plenty of fruit as well as tannins. Both fruit and tannins held up over the next hour as we drank with meal. Lovely--last of a case I bought decades ago.
