  Medium garnet. Medium- intensity aroma of leather, mushrooms, game and tobacco. Fully developed. Dry, medium acidity, tannin and alcohol. Medium- body. Medium + intensity and finish. Savoury, predominantly tertiary flavours of game, leather, mushroom, tobacco and cedar but with some blackberry fruit. Very good. Drink now.

  黑醋栗、李子、话梅、黑椒、烟丝、雪松，还有泥土和皮革，层次交叠但每种香气都交代得十分清晰，入口集中度也很好。果味相对于年纪来说依然比较丰富，单宁也保留着足够的紧实强度，所以结构保持得很好，正在成熟老去的巅峰后段。

  similar to my last note - tobacco and metallic Graves nose - austere mouth without much residual fruit but nicely balanced acid & tannin - short and somewhat bitter finish - more complex but not nearly as big as the 75 Montrose tasted alongside - nonetheless, a beautifully fully mature old Bordeaux - about what one should expect from a Graves after 40+ years - another example of a 75 that showed its true underlying character after resolution of the early tanninsbbbbbbbbbb

  corked, but the underlying structure of a mature Graves was intact - still with predominant tannins overpowering the residual fruit

  Strong Cardboard smell, probably TCA
