Amazing that 40 years later it is still as tannic as it is! Took a few hours to open up but once it did, super well integrated. Very herbaceous (juniper, eucalyptus), plums. Love the opportunity to drink a birth year wine!

Cooked plums, leaves on the nose. Minerality, good amount of tannins and acidity (especially for the age!), dark fruit. #wineordie #BordeauxCup #GoinUpOnATuesday
