Rare Wine Dinner (Sydney, Australia): Older in colour than the 1964, with some browning around the edges - but it is actually more youthful to me initially otherwise, on the palate especially. The nose is strongly iodine dominant, but there is smoke, iron and graphite as well. The palate doesn't have great depth, but there was some fruit remaining and was pleasant enough to drink. It did start to fade in the glass after not a huge amount of time, so drink now.
