Ambar pálido con cierta turbiedad. Espectacularmente aromática. Frutos secos, miel y bajamar. Fresca, salina y muy muy persistente. Perfecta para maridajes atrevidos. — 10 years ago

Held up very well for a 30 year old wine. Took about 1-2 hours to really open up and hit its peak. Finished by hour 3 as it seemed to tail off. Very cool drinking a Lafite. — 10 years ago

I love this wine. Straight up. Don't think there are many wines that can compete like this one does for $30 -2001 vintage — 11 years ago

This was a gift from a friend. It was laying in a closet at ambient room temp for 30-odd years, so I was nervous to open it, but it was perfect. So complex and fragrant. Acid and tannin still seemingly youthful. Wow! — 9 years ago

One of the best wineries in Napa. Can be consumed now but would benefit for a few years aging as tannins are very firm and surround the fruit forward taste. Still amazing, especially after 30-45 min in a decanter — 10 years ago

Be patient.... You have to wait at least 30 mins to bring it back to life... But we could still enjoy its preciouseness. — 12 years ago

Deep, rich raspberry and chocolate, structured tannins that didn't overwhelm, I picked up the 2012 vintage as well to age, can't wait to go back to it in 30 years. — 9 years ago

9.3

Mahogany color with molasses, caramel, espresso, bittersweet chocolate and subtle baking spice aromas. On the palate it's full bodied, viscous, and very persistent with a supple mouth feel that's beautifully balanced with a penetrating acidity that keep it from being cloying and persistent with very good acidity that keeps it from being cloying and provides balance. It shows very sweet flavors of molasses, honey-dipped figs, dates, caramel, and baking spice nuanced citrus note with a kiss of oxidation that adds to its allure and complexity. Long finish — 10 years ago

Original bottling, and worth the time on the cellar. More understated and seamless than it was in its youth, now quietly complex and richly complicated. — 11 years ago
