Drunk from magnum and won in a blind tasting against a Petrus from the same vintage. Enjoyed with Claves liver and pancetta, the perfume was evocatively long and finish had a length that surprised me. Still has many years to go but has reached a soft and very quickly approachable age, though it did benefit from an hour of decanting.

Simple decant. Elegant, but not memorable. Subtle fruit, old leather, easing tannins. Certainly in the window if not past slightly. Drink now thru 2026/8

Vertical from 1966 to 2014 at Wine Watch: not bad but not one of the better wines of the evening and reflected this underwhelming vintage.
