I would have thought this wine was at least 30 years younger than its true age! Better on the complex nose, with its cedar, tobacco leaf, cigar box, herb, wet earth and bright red fruit personality, than on the still full-bodied, earthy, dark red fruit and cigar wrapper palate. surprisingly, there was still an amazing amount of density and fruit on the palate, however, the finish was just a tad short. Still, when you consider this was 91 years of age, WOW!
