1975 Mayacamas. Dinner at Tap w Frederic. Drank last, after the 1975 Phelps Eisele and the 1990 Leroy. We opened and poured it. The nose was a little dusty at first (Frederic detected a little cork, even), but this blew off pretty quickly. This wine was the opposite of the Eisele, which was refined and elegant. This wine was muscular and punchy. A much bigger wine in the mouth. Will probably last longer than the Eisele.
