53 years in waiting for this group... What can I say. Started off much younger than the label would say.. Like the old grand dame of St Estephe.. Nice fruit, wonderful nose, and a pleasant finish to round out a great bottle of wine from a era gone by. Shared with friends like it should be. Looking forward to 2015 to do it all again.

Great nose of cassis and forest floor. Good earthy character. A bit metallic on entry. Being tart cherry. This is a cool wine and evolved nicely.
