May 19, 2011 - Aged Raveneau- Blind: Blanchot Vertical, 1990 Horizontal (Tom's House, Palo Alto): Very nice early on with aromas of sweet cigars, some oxidation; palate had some smoke, full bodied, good fruit; short and bitter finish. This wine also fell apart a bit with air and got progressively worse. Still excellent, but my #7 and group's #7. 90
