    I can really recommend this vintage. It is of course not on par with 1982, but has perfect ripeness right now. I bought a box of 12 bottles in 1984 and it has been in my own cellar since. Do you get hold of bottles stored properly, I can really recommend.

    1/19/15, 8:31 AM - I appreciate your kind reply and your experience. The bottles have been stored since release in an underground cellar and the fill levels are still in the neck! Should be great. Will post my notes..I plan on drinking them along with my 1983's which was also another great secret, overshadowed by the success of 82'. Thank you and lets keep looking for old school bordeaux!
