Similar to the 1978, although even more fragrant, the 1970 reveals some amber at the edge of its opaque garnet color. The smoky, roasted-meat-scented nose is followed by a wine of immense depth, with huge quantities of glycerin and tannin. This enormously endowed wine still possesses a vigor and freshness that are more akin to a wine 5-8 years old. Anticipated maturity: now-2015. Last tasted 6/94.
