With K at home at dinner (pizza). Medium ruby. Good color considering the vintage and the age of this wine. Nose is really quite enticing, with good core of fruit. Even has some complexity. Chocolatey. On the palate, somewhat of a lightweight, but still has a good measure of fruit, cocoa. Rather dry in the finish, but that is the only real definite sign of age. A real surprise. A '76, still alive and kicking at 14 years of age. 4-11-14-6: 85/100.

Very nice mature bordeaux. Still clean fruity taste. Fresh for 76!
