  I love to give older bordeaux a try. It doesn't have to be a perfect, but 76' was good for some producers.
  
  The cork was wet and pushed down, so I had to push it down into the wine, and decant the wine.
  Tasted over 3 hours while decanted
  
  The nose:
  Coffee, caramel, tomato, sour cherry, burned oak.
  
  The palate:
  Red sour berries, flowers, caramel with an oaky finish.
  
  Not that complex but for this appellation that's 45 years old, it's quite good, consider the age.
  
  89P - very impressive
