The surprise of the night from a half-dozen good bottles that came out for New Years Eve. Despite coming from a very well stored little collection I bought, I figured it couldn't have possibly survived all those years. It turned out it was recorked at the chateau in 1998 which must have saved it. Much better than another producer's '89 Margaux we drank the same night.

Predetermined Business Dinner (Restaurante Garcia de la Navarra - Madrid): A deception. Smells like a drag race track. Only that cork tried to save the day. This wine was dead long ago.
Fallida totalmente. Olía a goma quemada. Sólo se salvó el corcho. Este vino murió hace años.
