May 9th, 2018Really surprised at the other ratings. This is loaded with brett. Hard pressed to score it this well. High in the funk category.

I had the distinct pleasure of tasting this wine Monday in Seattle. The mag was open for 2 hours and still hAd that tannic bite. Along with the over-the-top complex notes of dirt, tobacco, dark cherries, etc. I will surely remember this pour. $383 / 98pts.

One of the most profound clarets I have ever tasted. This is why we age Bordeaux! At 25 years old, this is elegant, poised, complex, aromatic—simply magnificent. 10.0

‘90. Just spectacular. Ethereal Margaux nose, with Asian spices, floral aromas, some fruit, cedar. But still vibrant, pointed red fruit on the mouth.
