Great off the blocks with a deep and well structured body. The fruit was faded and after an hour most everything was faded apart from the acid and the tannins. #lafite #pauillac #bordeaux

Here is a wonderful drinking Bordeaux from a weak vintage. The 87 rocks. Don't decant open and pour. You have 90 minutes before the wine falls off but this is classic lead pencil graphic and balance. It surprised everyone.

Still had some fruit left, although fading very quickly. Glad I got to taste it.
