Beaulieu Vineyard Georges de Latour Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 1984

Sigh. this wine was just too old.

Though there was a burst of fruit when I opened the bottle and poured it in the decanter, sherry and nut like aromas on the nose dashed my hopes. Distinct, orange color gave further proof that the wine was oxygenized. The palate was completely off, showing that it had passed its prime. One star out of five.
