Wow, so delicious and still so youthful for age 60. Lots of still-fresh black cherry with earth, mushroom and leather nuances. Good balance freshness and still has some velvety tannin that hint at that "iron fist" of the past.

Happy Birthday to Me (Oriole - Chicago IL): Great color, great fill. Opened 30 minutes before serving. Lots of mature black fruit with black truffle, leather and braised meat, but wonderfully fresh for its age, Some people wondered if this was somehow fortified or supplemented, but I thought it completely authentic, probably from Vogüé.
