1951 anybody

[Bucko]

BV Private Reserve was outstanding in 1951 and I'll bet it is still alive.

The Louis Martini Mountain Cabs from that era have incredible aging capability. I drank a 1955 in 1995 out of a 375ml -- it was gorgeous.

That said, Tom, I do not know any private individuals who have any of these wines. However, I do know a source for the 1951 BV and the 1951 Krug (which I have not tasted):
