Finally, a Benchmark in wines, drinking wines older than one self, imagine the bottle of wine was already made, grapes picked seasons and years before you were born.
We had the opportunity to taste the Chateau Ausone 1975 (Magnum!), Chateau Loeville La Case 1981, Clos de la Roche Armand Rousseau pere e fils 1995. All were uncorked and decanted up to several hours. But all are still very tannic and not drinking!
We'll await reports from TK about the progress in the decanting, as they headed off for dinner and we have to prepare for our trip to Japan.
~845pm, Ausone 75 and Le Case 81 has opened. Ausone is tasting like alcoholic Ceylon tea... how interesting!
