Score 83/100 · Drink 1984, Robert Parker, Jan 1998

Given the listless management that Poyferre was under during this period, it is a wonder that the 1966 turned out as well as it did. Now fully mature, this medium-bodied, stylish wine has good black currant fruit, a complex, yet restrained bouquet of cedar and spices, and a good crisp, clean finish. Anticipated maturity: Now. Last tasted, 9/84.
