Friday, August 5, 2022 - A certain homage must be paid to any bottle of '61 Bordeaux. Dirty original cork and a mid shoulder fill caused some worry. Funky nose upon opening. Decanted for an hour and half. This released the still abundant fruit. Glorious nose.. Well balanced with good acidity and fully resolved tannin. I suspect that this was once better, but I love old Bordeaux. This wine has aged better than I have.
