Oct 17th, 2020Good looking bottle and fill. Reddish tawny, brighter and younger looking than the 94 Dominus mag next to it. Fruit forward nose. Notes of red currant fruit, plums, gravel stone, some cassis and a little cigar box. Pleasant in the mouth. Still has some structure to go with the fruit. Shorter than desired finish. Most liked this over the Dominus.

Mar 17th, 2017Beautiful Bordeaux! Structured with soft tannins. Great nose of cedar and leather. Balanced with a long finish. Yummy!

Dec 29th, 2016typical '86 with power, but ever so slightly over-mature (questionable cork & storage)
