about chateau malartic lagraviere 1916

Although I am the specialist of french wines graves de vayres (a district close to Libourne)I am othen interessted

by some old years of grand cru classé bordeaux.

A few months ago I was offered a pessac léognan grand cru classé chateau malatartic lagravière 1916.

Oh a royal gift.

I forgot this bottle but decided to interest to it.

What is my surprise to see that this wine has still a good level,and what is more incredible a full dark coloured!

What can be the taste of this wine more than 72 years?

Such a wine can go over 40 ans.

I tasted a malartic 1959 ,lovely,

I was said that the 1916 was bought at the french firm nicolas.

Will it be a pleasure or the hell?

I'll have the answer at my next birthaday,as I'll open it.

Maybe I must not dream too--
