1989 Château Marquis de Terme - France, Bordeaux, Médoc, Margaux (6/4/2026)
Popped and poured at cellar temp. Still has a lovely dark core, but quite a bit of bricking on the rim. Soy, limestone and dark earth on a subdued nose. Still has some tannic structure and nice lifted acidity, but fruit has faded. Did not have high expectations, and definitely should have been consumed earlier.

Sorry to hear about this–in my book, no reason an '89 shouldn’t be eminently drinkable right now.
