Score 75/100 · Drink 1978, Robert Parker, Jan 1998

Lacking fruit and coarsely textured, with a damp earthy, musty aroma, and modest flavors and proportions, this wine is still holding together, but seems to hold little promise for the future. Anticipated maturity: Now-probably in serious decline. Last tasted, 6/78.
