"The nose on the 1970 is absolutely lovely, as it soars from the glass in a refined mélange of sweet black berries, plums, black truffles, tobacco, soil and a patina of old wood. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and beautifully delineated, with juicy acidity, fine intensity of flavor, and great length and grip on the long and harmonious finish."
