  Too old. Very acid, no fun in drinking.

  Slightly corked, cheesy. Bottle just too old, I guess.

  Mid Red with good clarity. The nose on opening was mataure and divine and did continue to impress. What reallyexcited was the glorious sweet fruit, balance, acidity and complexity. Mid weight but just lovely. Michael Broadbent gave it a good note a number of years ago and can see why. After 45 minutes the fruit did start drying out a bit.

  Eminently drinkable, if getting a bit austere. Did not decant. Old world Bordeaux nose, a bit thin on the palate and a decent finish. Not bad for a 47 year old...

  - Brick color. It's lacking fruit with a medium body. Smooth texture with a medium finish - Drank with my dad. High fill with good acidity. Alcohol level a bit too high or maybe other elements just faded out. Trace of a well aged Bordeaux.
