Vintage 1964

Pour beaucoup, le millésime 1964 évoque des images d’une année vraiment unique.

Written Notes

Tasted twice - last time in March 2012. This wine was recorked in 2008. Before tasting in Copenhagen, I tasted this wine already in 1988 together with Francois father, Jean-Pierre Estager. Stunningly expressive Pomerols at 24 years of age. 24 years later, in 2012 this 48 years old wine hasn't lost anything of its vitality and energy and tasted exactly the same as in 1988!!

Truffles everywhere. Tannins were still fresh with subtle fundament of acidity, formidable balance, depth and length. This wine had enough stuffing to be alive and kicking for additional 10 years. Great example of how unbelievable long life span Bordeaux wines have. Meditation wine – yes it truly was.
