Back in the pre spoofed, classic days of Napa. 80 Chappellet CS - pretty tight at opening, but opened up beautifully. Pretty robust, made me think of something like an 85 Talbot. Fresh and quite alive, some years ahead. Better than almost all of the late 70s/81 Bordeauxs I've had in the last couple years. Seems like this bottle had had a rough patch, with a sticky cork. 12.4%!
A fine old claret
