  Very good and showing Griotte character. An above average bottle of '78 but overall unexciting. Score may be too harsh. 93-94

  Very good wine, with quality red fruit and modest structure. This bottle was probably slightly past peak, showing mid range energy and some dry and wet leaf notes. 93-94

  Great dark red fruit and good funk. Still a tang to the acid on the palate. Really beautiful bottle of this wine. 95-96

  From a great cellar. Drank with the 1978. Similarly sweet, truffle-y, and floral, while drinking more smoothly with resolved tannins. Ripe core of fruit and ethereal finish.
