  Color/App: transclucent, moderately deep ruby core -> diffuse garnet rim; high viscosity. Pleasant nose of blackberries and black cherries, plums and Christmas fruitcake. Palate is still nicely sweet with a light midpalate and long finish. Mostly black fruits with raspberries, figs and Ambenyl. Tannins soft and faded. For drinking now and over the next 5-10 years. Well done.

  TCA. Ruined. A complete disaster when you have paid around 200 euro per capita.

  FTLOP 18th Anniversary; 11/17/2023-11/19/2023 (Seattle, Washington): Dark opaque purple with garnet edges. There are enticing aromas of blackberry and blueberry compote with light herbal notes. Fresh crushed dark fruits dance on the palate, accompanied by dusty tannins and a wonderful balance that extends into a long, satisfying finish.

  Still drinking well, but glad this was my last bottle. Shows the depth and smoothness of 40 years of age.

  Double decanted three hours before service. Light red color. Good tannins but only a little alcohol heat. Medium sweetness. The overall experience was what I expected for what's turned out to be a lesser declared vintage. I like it but wouldn't seek out additional bottles unless they were a great price.
