Community Tasting Note

85 Points
Friday, June 14, 1991 - Deep dark ruby. Expressive bouquet with cassis, liquorice, caramel and smoky. A large amount of tannin and acidity. Cassis in the taste as well. Good bitterness and a hint of sweetness. Firm and straight forward wine. (Tasting it blind I was very impressed by the youthfulness of this wine. My score is without taking this in consideration.)
Seeing there is someone with another 12 bottles I hope to read a TN from that person(s?). I tasted this wine several times in the 90’s and it was always a blockbuster. I wonder how this has developed. When placing this note the wine in store somewhere is 42 years old!

I'm very curious too about this wine. Had some bottles in the late eighties with similar experiences as you describe.
