The Richebourg is a '53 Burg.

The '64 Roth and the '71 Cruse show signs of leakage.

Unfortunately, its very likely that all of those bottles are now oxidized and are now just expensive vinegar. The '53 is definitely shot...according to my winemaker '64 wasn't a great year in Bordeaux, but that bottle is shot anyways.

For the rest of 'em...might as well give 'em a try and report back here!

either way!
