Birthday year wine for me. So far, I’ve aged better than this bottle but it’s close! The ‘88 is slightly past its prime but still worth tasting. In the garden of earthly delights - dried figs, plums, dates, and mushrooms. Some peat and chocolate. Plenty of spice. Very fun. Happy birthday to me!

Aug 18th, 2024Fully mature, showing nicely for an underappreciated vintage. On the herbal/earthy side of things, old style Bordeaux giving plenty of pleasure but few fireworks.
