1974 Chateau Musar Rouge
Titania eating fairy strawberries on a cinnabar divan, but only after a full 20 minutes in the glass. Why is this wine so old? What does that even mean? Age makes sense in some chewy/impossible Bordeaux that mellows into smooth caresses, but this is silk sublimated, the old made aged, orangey-brown and outrageously pretty, unnatainbly expensive, a pleasure for a tiny group of people. Could age another twenty years? Could I age another twenty years and still be interesting? Am I interesting now? Being able to sit quietly and drink wine like this is a great motivation to become wealthy.
