My fav bordeaux of the night but others preferred the '85 calon segur...this was lightsr and more elegant, and more ready to drink but will still hold for several more years. Great mature old boots, leaves and mushroom with a kiss of cassis still hanging around...very well balanced, well oaked classic bordeaux.
