Fremstår på nedtur rett etter åpning, fullt inntørket frukt og ikke så mye mer å gi. Etter ca en time kommer en fresh og ganske ekspressiv aroma av pioetobakk og spice. Litt monoton men i live. Smaken mangler noe presence, fullt integrerte tanniner. Litt kuriøst men går an å drikke

A distinct musty TCA note at first that slowly faded as it sat and warmed up. Very good acidity and a sweet/tart currant/cranberry fruit. Some campfire and bell pepper tossed in too make this a classy old Bdx.

A bit musty but also has some nice tertiary notes - a little bit of fruit and something umami - iron-vitamin-strawberry-marzipan. Tart black cherry some herbal. Nose - 4/6, Palate - 4/6, Finish - 4/6, Je ne Sais Quoi - 1/2 = 13/20.

Not bad at all. Maybe already seen it’s better days but why not pop it on a Thursday night 42nd birthday. We enjoyed drinking it and all the old school funk a bdx brings. Definitely agree with the acidic comments but still enjoyable. Surpassed my expectations. And for $90 bucks no complaints!

Bright 1979 acid, hightoned red fruit, tobacco turning toward ashtray. An elegant older dowager on the downslope but still interesting. B/B-
