Still an exceptional wine with recent tastings of 95+ from Jeff Leve and Parker. Levels are great and what a wonderful 40th birthday present. I have 4 so do make me an offer if you need more!!

Description

Need I say more!!

1986 Vintage Tasted: Sep 2023
Brawny, beefy, masculine, yet, regal with its layers of tobacco-drenched red fruits, leafy garden herbs, forest floor, and greenery. Full-bodied, chewy, and deep, this is one of the best examples from this challenging vintage. Popped and poured, this is simply fabulous and character-filled. Drink from 2023-2045. 96pts
