  To say this was better than expected is not saying much as I wasn't expecting much. Here, you find earth and tobacco, but little fruit and the fruit that's there has faded.

  3/6/2020 - IJC Likes this wine:

  Astonishing. Profound. Unexpected.
  
  Beyond words wonderful. Multi-layered, red/ dark red, sweet/ sour, bright/ dark, perfumed floral with touches of forest floor and the wind blowing, a complete extra-sensory experience. When drinking this, everything else came to a full stop.
  
  I've owned this bottle for close to 40 years, it wasn't kept in ideal conditions the first 20, and the vintage is rated awful. None of this registered once the bottle was open.
  
  Rated HC (beyond category) on a scale of -1 to +3.
