Color, light clear red with copperish edge. 1st nose, earthy; 2nd nose, roasted vanilla and oak. On the palate, fair amount of fruit, smooth tannins and texture. Medium to big body. With long finish. Paired exceptionally good with duck confit. Everyone was amazed how well this wine was showing after 40+ years in the bottle!!

Still hanging in there. Maybe a few years of life left. Nice earth and dark fruit flavors, definitely some browning robe on the edges.
