Pomerol 

u. 1ts, 1hs, 1ms, bin-soiled and damp-stained labels, scuffed capsules and 1 nicked capsule, 1 oxidized capsule, bottles come from different importers

Tasted from half bottle. Darker colour than the '62. Huge, meaty nose. Liquorice, white tobacco, spices. Huge rich liquorice richness on the palate. Just entirely lines the whole interior of the mouth. A giant wine of great square shoulders allied to spicy complexity and huge dimension. Multi-layered. Grandiose. In 2015 and from bottle, so rich, complex and all-enveloping. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
