I brought those up for pleasure. The center bottle is the one shown on my yesterday's SP.
I opened the 1976 yesterday at noon and was very surprised. Despite of the level being low in the bottle, the wine was full bodied and powerful. This is not common to this one since Bonne Mares is generaly very fine and elegant. This one was not, had a fantastic taste of hard leather which is a prove that a lot of new oak casks took place at the maturation. Nice smell of pelargonium leaves, black fruits and vanilla over all. A good bottle.
The 1980 on the left was a surprise in the way of smell and taste. I drunk it with friends yesterday evening. The smell was full of red fruits and some black as well. A perfumed smell of flowers and lavender came up. At first touch in the mouth it developed those red fruits, strawberry of the woods, raspberry and and a very powerful taste of violets. The taste remained for a while and still half an hour later it was present. A wonderfull wine. Today those bottles are sold curently some 200$ for the more recent years.
The center bottle is one of the top growth of Burgundy. Those bottles are sold between 300 and 400$ in good years and old ones like this can reach prices up to 1500$ on the market. For me this is not a reason not to drink them. That's what they are made for anyway and also why I bought them.

I thought also that on this shot I should harmonize with the bottles and show my own vintage. For sure, if I was a bottle of wine, nobody would by me in that vintage ... ;-)
