Served with a tuna steak (Basque preparation: onions and peppers, a bit of piment d'espelette), married very well. Had actually intended to serve a Poulsard Vielles Vignes, but put my had on the wrong bottle, and this one went very well. Has the age it needs, but shows NO signs of age: could no doubt go much longer. Too bad it was my last bottle!

Borderline flawed. Weak and acidic. No fruit, diluted color. Only had one memorable bottle otherwise 1988 magnum and 1998 magnum both bad.
