The 1968 offers aromas of coffee, toffee, caramel, and baking spices which lead to flavors of rich hazelnuts, tangerine rind, nutella, and dark chocolate. This is intoxicating for its current drinkability and range of flavors. There is a lovely terroir drive and volcanic element to this wine with the structure well-defined, despite its age. Beautifully expressive, the finish lingers for more than 40 seconds. This is a rare treat. (Best 2015-2035) - November, 2015 (OB)
