Neil Beckett | A great privilege and a great thrill to taste this, which all too few will do and which I'm sure I will never do again (some 600 bottles). An authentic natural luster, pale ruby (100% stems). Gently reductive and still to blossom on the nose, but the palate is already utterly astonishing: a cashmere softness, effortlessly and seemingly endlessly expansive, to the point where you feel you can hardly contain it, still less express it. Incredible (a description I always try to avoid, but it seems unavoidable here) and certainly indescribable in normal terms. Sublimissime must suffice. | 99
