The nose has some truffle, smoked meats and black earth. The palate still has echoes of sweet red berry fruits. It is salty and fine, with a lacy texture and some tang to the finish. Flavours linger.

Resolved, subtle and understated, but very good with dark sweet spice notes perfectly balanced with dry red fruit, earth notes, and tea highlights. Nothing jumps out, but all is seamlessly integrated. A wine that requires attention. Great bottle. 95-96

EOHK. Floral, forest floor aromatics. Really clean palate with classic DRC sweetness. Man this is beautiful if a step behind 1971. Shocking yields in those days. (8552/30665)

Bob Mandeau's 60th Birthday. Excellent. Cannot believe how fresh the fruit was. Sappy crushed strawberries, some white pepper/spice. Tons of depth and concentration but danced across the palate effortlessly. It continued to evolve and was better 30 minutes in the glass. I am in love.

Time seems not to be kind to the 1964 LTs - this was okay but not much better.
