New one on me. 1987 considered a pretty poor vintage, so you don't see many at auction and I don't think I've ever tasted one (most were likely drunk in the nineties). It's NOT all that good.

Worth the hype. Complex wine that was beautiful through and through. Drank out of a 6L and took time to open.

Beautiful color. nose of cedar, leather and spices. Super light with nice black fruits, spearmint, spice, fine tannins. Has a wonderful Lingering finish that hangs around for minutes after each sip. Amazes me how well this wine has held up. No sediment, cork a little soft. Only $180 back in ‘87
