Overview

Alison Buchanan: Leesy nose, this is concentrated, very bright, interesting, a little waxy, full and ripe. There is still wonderful concentration here, if slightly debauched and there are lovely secondary aromas. 16.5

Alex Hunt: Both bottles corked. N/S

Andrew Jefford: Pale gold. Again for me, not TCA–affected but infinitely dreary nonetheless. Tired, dry, cardboardy, anaemic, acidic. 7
