71st birthday wine from daughter Georgie’s birth year. Cedar aromas like an antique shop. Maraschino cherries Georgie said with touches of marzipan, and anise Dusty plum and cassis. Soft resolved tannins. A gorgeous First growth claret from a great vintage in 1989. Enjoyed this more than the previous tasting early last year. Really enjoyable.

1989 vintage. Impressive nose after decanting, drinking beautifully now. Very, very long.

dark fruit, tobacco, cigar box, pencil shavings,

gobs of juicy fruit, bay leaf and bell pepper finish

over time fruit leans to roll ups, as well as including dried prunes and dates

Celebrating my daughter Georgie’s birth year before she returns overseas tomorrow. Notes of plum, cassis and tobacco all melded together with soft dusty resolved tannins. Hints of cowyard, dried rose and leather developed. A gorgeous Mouton from an excellent vintage and ready to drink now.

Only great bottles. But this is as good as this has ever shown. Superb and quintessential mouton.

From 6L bottles. One 6L was, very sadly, corked. The other was good though Far from great or even particularly noteworthy. Paled by comparison to the Margaux and Latour 6L bottles tasted contemporaneously.

An uninspiring vintage from an inspiring producer. Lacking density
