Fully mature! But not everyone's cup of tea! Rather superb mineral nose, a little sweety! Fresh palate with a sufficient amount of acidity! To me personally, drinking very well at the moment!

Definitely not dead. From a lot of 2 750ml's and a magnum of 1993 from Spectrum auctions. Less that $200 for the three of them. Nose was classic claret still. Fruit somewhat mute but tannins smooth and secondary notes present. It's like a hot older chick. Body is showing age, but the swagger is still there and SEXY. Looking forward to the magnum, I might get surprised.

From magnum. Showing really well with a minimal decant. One of the 1993s worth seeking out. I didn't take any careful notes but I remember this bottle being fully integrated and completely ready to drink. Lots of floral elements, and red fruits. Pretty low acid content and not the longest finish. I nice wine worth the price I paid.

Certainly drinkable, but definitely well past its prime. Nothing really there, no backbone. From 375 ml, well stored, good fill, solid cork.

Slightly better than last time but I'm glad this is my last bottle. Drink up people!
