Being retired, I can no longer avoid to even think of purchasing wines like the one I picked out of my wine cellar today. Sigh ..

1982 Ch. Latour. Many reviewers gave it a 100. I've had it for 30 odd years and even though my wine cellar is well insulated and range of temperature and humidity do not vary wildly, I don't think it has aged as well as I had hoped. It's a little dry and the cork did not come out in its entirety, even though I used my best and longest corkscrew.

I think it will still go well with the standing rib roast now cooking. I have another bottle of much younger Cabernet Sauvignon, if my wife does not care for this precious bottle.

Hope you all enjoy your special bottle for your Christmas dinner.
