"...Most of my notes were made in the 1980's only two recently. Showing well, perfectly evolved at pre-sale tasting in New York (1997), and later the same year at Wolf's tasting in Austria: a lovely mellow colour; bouquet sweet, 'singed', fragrant, classic, great depth; medium sweetness and body. A good ripe flavour. Most recently, soft, rich, delicious aftertaste. Very good but 'past its perfect best'. Last tasted at the Russian National Orchestra dinner, Spencer House, London, April 2002 *****" MB, Vintage Wine
