Once again this wine surprised me with how well it’s held up over 40+ yrs. The cork was brittle, but the no seepage and the wine was up at the neck; overall a perfect bottle. Decent nose with light fruit, some mineral and earthy notes. Thought I had some raspberry at one point and the typical raisin, but all went away within a n hour or so of opening. Overall, lovely 😁

Very serviceable for its age and storage, which really says how well made these wines are. Good nose of fruit, slight discoloration (rust) but
