Stunning bottle from 1984 that goes great with truffles.

This particular bottle was not on point. Still a legend and will live to fight another day!

Thinking of how long this wine was made in such a humble way is inspiring. Great wine!

More savory, yet tart note than the '76 & '78

Anniversary wine. Thank you to Mrs A for 32 great years and cheers to 32 more. 🍷Base neck fill, but after removing foil saw that this had seeped just a bit. Cork disintegrated and server couldn't save it even with the Ah So I gave him. Strained into decanter. Acid s bit out of balance to start, but fleshed out nicely in about 45 min. Nice cigar box nose and very good with steaks. Thanks to @Matthew Beckman for not completely cornering the market on older Mayacamas and allowing me to snag at least one bottle on line. 🙏

1984. From half bottle. Opened up after an hour in decanter. Still vibrant with plenty of fruit.
