Bordeaux Book(1998) Author: Robert Parker Issue: B1

One of the Medocs most successful 1978s, this wine has reached full maturity, but it reveals no signs of an early demise. The color is a dark ruby/garnet with only slight amber at the edge. The nose offers up black truffle, cassis, smoked herbs, and meaty aromas. In the mouth, there is a green pepper quality to the rich, sweet fruit. This medium-bodied, silky-textured wine is more spice-driven than most Palmers, but attractive and mouthfilling.

Opened at 7:30 PM. Decanted at 7:45 for 2 hours. Initially the wine of intense ruby red color delivers sweet spice, cedar, tobacco, cigar box and blackcurrant aromas, in a very complex manner. We almost thought that the wine had missed it's peak b/c of the aromas right out of the bottle. After 1 and half hour, the wine shows much stronger in mouth with blackcurrant liquor flavors, leather, tobacco and spices. Coffee aromas completes the range of aromas of the nose. Still well balanced, it drank very well for the next 2 and half hours. Brilliant!
