92 Points

Thursday, April 9, 1998 - This was the last bottle of a case of 1977 and 1978 which I picked up way back when for around $20 per bottle. They were elegant. The Cabernet really stood out. On the nose there was sweet vanilla, leather, some earth tones especially as the wines aged. They were velvety smooth, with flavors of cassias, smokey berries, and cooked fruit (when older). While the wines varied over the years, they exhibited both new and old world characteristics. I am adding this review way after the fact, but after having so much pleasure from these 24 bottles, I wanted a record of their existence.
