  Stored in my cellar for close to forty years, I decanted it for two hours. The color is dark red, no brown on the edge. The nose is quite forward with dark fruit, blackberries, and some lilac. The full body was dark fruit forward with big legs. It's finish is lingering
  with fruit. I only wish I had bought more.

  Very surprising bottle; low ullage in neck and considerable sediment when decanted. Not much happening until after several hours, wine opened... and what a treat! 14.0% ABV
  
  Color: brick red with brown edges
  
  Nose: clearly an old cabernet; dried fruit
  
  Body/flavor: medium-full body; complex and rich flavors... beautifully blended with dried fruit
  
  Aftertaste: lingering
