"it is not only the most impressive, famous (and expensive) '47 but is unquestionably one of the greatest wines of all timeIt was at its best at the Latner dinner: lovely bouquet; losing its positive sweetness, though very rich and powerful (14 alcohol) with a slightly tarry taste. Still impressive. Most recently, faultless yet- dare I say it - unexciting. At Spencer House, London, May 2000 *****" MB, Vintage Wine
