Truffles with the SLDS (CFs): Raspberry, mulberry, dirt, roses and flint. Palate is mild, with delicate fruit and nicely resolved structure. Has some charm about it, and was much better than a bottle 10 years prior.

One of the few legends from the '77 vintage was sadly singing way off key tonight. The nose had aromas of yeast, peat, potato, sweaty socks and smoke. The palate was worse with no fruit, and acid dominating. This was an off bottle and I hope to encounter a good one sometime in the future.
