1970 vintage. Surprisingly good for this perennial underachiever. It is rustic and lacks a bit of concentration, but it improved with decanting and is still very much alive.

Dec 2nd, 2022Pronounced juicy fruits on the nose, tastes like diluted fruit juice but with tannins and alcohol.

Apr 22nd, 2019Drank 1/18/19 at the Union des Grands Crus de Bordeaux event in Miami. All wines from the 2016 Vintage.
Tasting pour, no formal notes taken. Most of these wines are very tight, and will require 5-15 years to really come together. Many will likely improve a few points with time.

Outside lunch so bit difficult to carefully detect, but
Aged aroma, blueberry and blackberry,
Cedar, oak, touch of coffee.
