Nice aged claret. Everything is there, perhaps a tad too acidic for my taste. May change with air. This is PNP. But for what it is, it’s very good. The nose is quite complex. Well in its drinking window IMO

Perfect bottle, even though it's nearly 20 years old. Nose was a bit dusty in the beginning but opened up with blueberries dominating. Colour is really dark, fading into red at the rim. Concentrated fruit, some oak on the palate. Very mellow and dense at the same time; tastes much younger than 1993. Happy to have one bottle left!

Very pleasant at this point, but clearly close to the end of it's drinking window.

No formal notes, light cherries, red berries, quite ok.

Consistent with my last posting from 2012. This time initially more rubber notes than last time but a 3 hour decant helped to wear it off.
