July 10, 2021 - This was one of my top wine experiences of the year. In line with with 90’ Las Cases couple of weeks back. Whereas the 90 Las Cases was seductive and almost hedonistic, this had a bit more rougher edges but not lacking in complexity.
It took about 90 mins in the glass to open up properly. Tastes much younger than it is with beautifully integrated tannins. It has secondary nuances but still with primary fruit intact. It hasn’t really started it’s journey into tertiary yet which surprises for a wine with over 40 years of age. This is a magnificent wine and was a pleasure to experience it.1,839 views
