Took a long time to open after 20 years. Plenty of Brett influence, but on the leather side, not unpleasant. Rich, dark cherry, fairly thin body, tannins are super mellow at this point.

Nice redfruit aromas and flavors, still pretty youthful, nicely balanced, solid structure, very good!

Solid color, tad of green note, but fresh, lively, not overripe, really solid, but not at the level of our weekend wines!

Aging has been kind to this wine.
Very well balanced with typical Bordeaux characteristics.
Based on tannin structure, this wine should continue to mature and improve for another decade plus.

Bad bottle. Bummed. Should have opened sooner I guess.

Surprisingly young tasting for its age. Nice classic Bordeaux, with some nice vegetal notes and a nose of pencil lead and leather. Great fruit and medium-long finish. Very nice wine.
