Decanted about six hours. Never really filled out. Initial port like aromas remained for hours, mellowing some eventually. Good fruit and acidity, but just did not come together. Worked well with pork. Enjoyable enough, but nothing exciting. Rank this one well behind the 1947, 1952 and 1958.

Hazy brick colour. Initially just lots of cheesy aromas on the nose and sour taste on the nose. After about 20 - 30 mins om the glass the wine certainly improved and gave off notes of tobacco. But all the time lingering was an off-smell and off sour taste. But still fun to drink a bit of history.

Drinking very nicely. Fresh rose petals. Rose hips. Bit of red fruit. Drinking very well.
