[Taylor vs Fonseca @ The Warwick (NYC)]: Dark red center, lighter rim. Some spirit showing, a bit closed. Hints of bittersweet chocolate. Not as fleshy as the companion 1985. I guessed Taylor and was corrext. (91)

You got that right. In comparison to the 1985 Fonseca, this is an "also ran." Not in the same league but this particular bottle was in really pristine condition and I enjoyed it more than usual.
