November 23, 2022 - 1982 Bordeaux (and friends) (Noizé, London): A lovely end to the evening. This has orange marmalade and a lovely spearmint note also some shredded tarragon leaves. Palate has lovely breadth and retains a lovely acidity. Last bottle of this sadly.

September 14, 2022 - Delicious! Fully mature and not over the top sweet. Some of the typical apricot sweetness has turned more into honeysuckle instead with a slight nuttiness on the finish. Elegant and lovely.
