My kind of wine. Strong and in your face without being too dry. — 10 years ago

Take your pick, @Delectable Wine ! All were brilliant, although the younger Bourgogne and Cote Rotie took the spotlight. Brilliant wines top to bottom. — 10 years ago

I'd get to drinking your 97's now. Good...great actually but beginning to lose a lot. Cork was quite soft on mine. Flavor...like California...but smoother ;-) — 11 years ago

It is not every day that you get to drink your birth year. Especially when it was 40 years ago. It is just amazing standing fully mature but with what seems like an endless life. 1975 for ever!! — 11 years ago

Extremely concentrated and dense so if you're in the camp of "bigger is better" (well, then you're wrong ;-), this will be right up your alley.
Impressive for its sheer strength this should have a long life ahead and I look forward to tasting it again with 10+ years in the cellar.

The 2012 is Zin-like! Fruit & spice and everything nice. Fruit up front, with a lingering peppery finish. This red blend remains a great daily driver. Be careful, the 14.5% will 'steal your face' if you don't check yourself! — 10 years ago

Put this on the shelf for a few years. Great dark berry and cherry but enough tannin to ripe your face off! Splash decant if drinking young! — 11 years ago
