1989 vintage. Multiple (6) bottles decanted and tasted after 1 hr, 2hrs and 4hrs. Still a bit rambunctious but some of the spiky edges have folded inwards and the overall impression is less "Ruler of the known world" as it once was. Seemed a tad more advanced/accelerated than my last visit. Still very very nice. Would like to taste again before officially going totally OPD/DOA on such a historically great wine. 4.4.23.

Apr 5th, 2023Happy New Year! This wine was very light bodied for a Beadeaux, but with some great spice flavour. Would have liked a bit more weight and body.

Dec 31st, 2021This seemed riper than the 90 I had a few days ago with a hint of maderization. Not sure if this was s bad btl as this like the 90 was purchased on release. I don’t recall any past btls with this issue but it has been several years since last trying.
