Celebrating a special plus one birthday. Delighted that the vintage held up to the birth date. Earthy, old plum and wet forest. Awesome!!!!!!

1970. Subtle red fruit, but still there. Rosemary, plum, hoisin, eucalyptus.

Had the 70 vintage about 20 times from first bottle about 1981...wine has not fallen off that much which is much of Mouton's strength and drank medium bodied and still firm fruit/acid balance.

Mouton '70....celebrating a dear friend's birth year. Interesting enough to be engaged, a bit thin on the back (the wine, that is), formidable mid palate given the vintage and mid-shoulder level. Wine is about sharing moments with friends....and for that I'm more enamored than I might normally be.

Lovely wine though thin on the palate compared to other vintages such as 1966.

Wine of the night. Still showing great fruit and balance. Wonderful 45 year old Bordeaux.
