An excellent champagne for the price. Itwas really good! The nose was floral with a hint of brioche, and the palate was also floral and had lemon, green apple, apricot and a honey aftertaste. — 7 years ago

Had this as a night cap on the steps outside our hotel, over looking St Emilion. Amazing bottle full of life 37 years in. Once again proves "don't buy the vintage, buy the producer". Without a doubt one of the few royalties of Margaux. — 9 years ago

Still a lot of life left despite the vintage. After decanting for an hour it is hard to find any flaw with it. — 9 years ago

Beautiful. A little barnyard, some musty dark fruits, but beautifully integrated, with plenty of acidity. Has a ton of life ahead. — 10 years ago

The first vintage release from Harlan estate. Now I can say I have been lucky to try every vintage of this wine. Long finish, with a lot less of a ripe attack than anticipated. Long life ahead of this wine made in a different era in napa. #timetraveling — 11 years ago

Tasted blind. Ruby color. Almost opaque. Young fruit forward nose. Notes of plums, mocha, dark chocolate, coffee, cinnamon and some exotic thing like eucalyptus. So rich and vibrant in the mouth. A forever finish. This wine took us in all directions. Immortal. Stan's 60th will always be remembered for the 45 Latour vs 45 Mouton mano y mano battle. A wine life moment for sure. — 9 years ago

Had it September 2013.
Big fruit still there, spices, cigars box. Perfect balance on the palate, good acidity and fabulous tannin. Just a touch too much of wood still there. I wouldn't have said it had 25 years of life. Not too complex. — 10 years ago

Can't say enough about a wine this serious at this price point. Absolutely stunning, elegant, and even (in a chinon way) powerful. Floral aromatic dominate - lavender and a bit of rose. Graphite, dusty chalk, red pepper, some raspberry. Fresh yet not primary. Hints of savory notes as well. Incredible spine of minerality runs through the palate. Great acidity and structure. Coiler and energetic. Finishes long and bright with refreshing pyrazines for days. In an incredible place now, so no fault in drinking but has a long, long life ahead. One of the best values in the wine world. Just exceptional — 9 years ago

A surprising number of bubbles for the age yet the age showing itself and not a lot of life left. There was concern about storage based on the shape of the bottle. — 9 years ago
