89 and 86 Haut-Brion, 50 Cheval Blanc, 83 Barca Velha and 76 Schloss Elz BA





1983 Casa Ferreira Barca Velha:
Ruby. Floral, cherries, touch of licorice, coffee and leather. Fresh acidity, ripe tannins, quite mouthwatering and a red fruit nerve in the licorice finish. 90

1989 Château Haut-Brion:
Deep ruby, garnet rim. Massive nose in the sence of layers and complexity. Scented, fruity, refined. Has everything. Fresh acidity, ripe tannins, mouthwatering and superb palate, stunning texture and structure, subdued, refreshing and truly long. 100

1986 Château Haut-Brion:
Deep ruby, garnet rim. Scented, cassis, leather, minerals, somewhat minty. More intense nose than the last bottle. Fresh acidity, ripe tannins, mouthwatering, fresh texture and structure, but slightly leaner body. Long. 94

1950 Château Cheval Blanc:
Deep ruby, thin brown rim, lots of sediments. Some floral notes, coffee, leather and figs. Fresh acidity, ripe tannins, plums and figs, drying. On the verge. Interesting rather than great. 85

1976 Schloss Elz Eltviller Sonnenberg Riesling Beerenauslese:
Amber with golden hue. Overripe apricots, caramel and very ripe yellow apples. Fresh acidity, sweet but balanced, creamy texture, long finish. 90
