  November 13, 2016 - Double Blind 1990 Bordeaux with a Big Infusion of Show Stealing Old Napa (Jason and Tracy's, Mpls, MN): Dark red color with an 8-10mm bricked margin. PNP, drank 1 glass over 30-40 minutes. I love these old Inglenook wines, this one was in particularly good condition. There's a lot of mint up front, red fruits, dried berries, leather, earth and a rose petals. Mature and integrated with fine balance and pretty red fruits, dried leaves, florals, and red plum. This had a scrumptious nose and the palate was absolutely no slouch either. Great bottle at 43 years old.

  July 27, 2013 - Showing quite well @ 40. Fully resolved, long & plush with nice ripe red fruit character and hints of mushroom, cellar floor. Just a touch of sour acidity on the finish the velvety texture trumps any flaws

  May 14, 2011 - Still vital after 38 years! Nose of oxidized dark fruit, cedar and pencil carried through to the mouth. Pretty wiine, and well matched with grilled tenderloin.
