Mind blowing for it's freshness at such age. Not nearly over the pick. I haven't taken proper notes but this very impressive, if less hedonistic than either Lafite or Lynch-Bages at the same tasting. No rush with my 86' then...

The best 75 I've ever had. Good balance of fruit and earth. Amazingly good and youthful.

Although 75 wasn't a great year this was beautiful and believe it or not had a number of years left in it. Was open for a few hours but could've been open even longer.

This 49 years old LLC was in the first sniff a bit dull, but then miraculously this grand master of BDX stood up and showed its pure class. Ok it’s not a young bastard but what a pleasure to drink with friends.
