Delicious. 12.5% alc, just pure, authentic cali cab goodness. In a great place, so anyone with well-stored bottles is in for a treat. Very elegant. I wish they still made them like this......

Very alive, green, tar, moth balls, stewed tomato, leather, black cherry, smooth tannins, cola, star anise, amazing chance to try a historic wine.

Still showing incredible with loads of power yet perfectly subdued and teaming with flavor... Dried wild blue and blackberries... Forest floor and rose petals... This wine was more extracted that the 1980 but lower in alc at 12.5% |

Bought this wine from K&L for $59 and it was a steal. Cork a little tricky but wine was sound. Completely resolved and gorgeous. Fruit still sound light dark and red fruits, great balance. Maybe a touch past its prime but still very sound.

Oxidized- caramel nose and soured boo! Very disappointing. At least the last bottle was excellent. 1984 vintage
