    Forget it. Evenif these were stored at 55 they are toast. Even the most prodigious CdPs like Beaucastel died out 5 years ago and they were barely hangin on. 1972 was better in the northern Rhone like Hermitage but the south did not see a vintage that offered as much concentration and longevity. B&G never made a really long lived CdP so I suspect this wine peaked about 15-20 years ago. Sentimental value at best. Sorry for the bad news.
