Re-corked in 1953 and 1983. Badly bin-soiled & partly detached label. Level into neck
Tasting note: From the cellars of the Caviar Kaspia restaurant in Paris, recorked in 1957: light colour and style; sound, delicate fragrance; elegant (1976). Later, another charmer, Bordeaux-bottled, slightly sweet, feminine, long, dry finish with refreshing acidity. Last noted at Lloyd Flatt's Lafite tasting, Oct 1988 *** M.B.
