Apr 17th, 20161985 vintage. Wandered into an "in progress" tasting. Open (not decanted) for an hour before tasting. Light-medium body. Good color. Reticent nose with a slightly charcoal flavor profile. Tasted directly after a non-pic/forgotten 1er Cru 1990 red Burg (9.6) and just before the 1985 Sassicia (9.3). First World probs. Burg won the day. 3.1.24.
