Bottle (1)


"A stunningly complex, even brilliant nose of aged burg aromas, sous bois, spice notes (especially clove and anise) that are gracefully followed by rich, full and naturally sweet medium plus weight flavors that completely coat the mouth on the wonderfully long finish. This is drinking perfectly now and it's hard to see it improving further though it should continue to hold without difficulty. A great '85 and one of the best of the DRC line-up in this vintage." (94 pts. Allen Meadows, Burghound, Mar. 2013)

“A stunningly complex, even brilliant nose of sous-bois, spice notes (especially clove and anise) is gracefully followed by rich, full and naturally sweet medium plus weight flavors that coat the mouth on the wonderfully long and mineral-driven finish. A great '85 and one of the two best reds of the DRC line-up in this vintage. Multiple and mostly consistent notes though some bottles are fresher than others.” (94 pts. Allen Meadows, Burghound, May 2018)
