A second contribution to the evening from RAYC: Dark red. Big fruity entry followed by very dry tannins. Younger than its years. I guessed Dow 1985.

Re: 1977 Gould Campbell
GC77. Bright red, 70% opaque. Nosing of plums and dry tannins. Medium-weight, all purple fruit, dry late-palate. Indian spices too.
I thought Martinez ’91. Others thought Bomfim ’87; Dow ’97; Dow ’85; Warre ’91.
