Hot night with insufficient AC
Delicate, fading, light but still has some fruit. Some dirt, rubber, sweetness and a bit of barnyard. A little density in the core.B

Somewhat harsh and thick. Fruit is pretty thin and the structure is pretty thick. Metallic and sharp with iron notes.C
Some thick deep fruit, a little flabby. A little short. Nutty.B-
Thick and silky with lush dark fruit, deep coffee. Some tannins, but this is ready to go.B+
More tannic than the 1985 but has a sweet core. Minty with very pretty fruit. A bit course, needs time.B++
Slightly corked. Some tannins, some lush fruit and a young core, but not living up to what it should be.
A bit watery and light at the core and not hugely fruity. Some sweet fruit behind and some nice herbs along with acidic tannins. Not a lot to it.C+/B-
Wonderful, sweet, rich. Some acidic tannins. Could use a bit more age, but ok to drink now.A-
Big, punchy with some dark fruit. Smooth and somewhat hot, concentrated, complex and very dense. Could use more bottle age. Wonderful.A
A bit light with a watery core. Smooth and mature but unexciting.B-
Sweet full fruit with heavy tannins. Concentrated, but and full but also flabby.B+/A-
Concentrated. Sweet, lush, punchy, and smooth. Very complex. Wonderful but young.A/A-
Sweet core with hard tannins. Good herbs, but thin and flat.B-
Very nice. Broad, herbal, somewhat tannic. Not very concentrated, but nicely complex and very enjoyable.A-
Lush wonderful nose. Sweet core with some blueberry. Lots of tannins and broad sweet oak. Closed and hard to evaluate. Very good.
