Had about 10 cases of Borges 80 over the years and it was gorgeous and subtle. I'd certainly expect it to be good. PM if you want to spread the risk

I've been very underwhelmed by older Borges vintages, so wouldn't jump at this. Never did taste the 85 though. This is what Suckling had to say about it in 1989:
James Suckling wrote:This is so light and ready to drink that it is more like a ruby or a late-bottled vintage. Medium to light red, with simple aromas of cherries and chocolate, light-bodied and clean, with sweet cherry flavors and light tannins on the finish. ”“JS (70 points)
