  January 14, 2010 - Lac Dujac (Braeburn): Wow—there's more life and vibrancy to this than any '76 I can remember, with an impressive amount of gloss and ripe berry flavor that would have led me to guess it to be much younger than this at first. But there's an underlying savoriness to it that speaks to its aging in bottle, and it finishes with serious length of I-don't-know-what but it sure isn't something fruity. With air it gets more leathery and begins to show its age, as well as turning somewhat inelegantly boxy as you might expect from a '76. But on the basis of its performance when first poured it was certainly one of the highlights of the lineup.
