I had the '85 Warre's a couple of years ago and found it very drinkable though still quite youthful. There was a backbone of tannins but they were relatively ripe. It drank very well though it appeared to have many years ahead of it.

I'm glad you had a few nice things out of this bunch of notes, and this from a name I enjoy. But I just checked my inventory and I have but one bottle of this. Thanks for the note and reminder.
