91 Points

Sunday, May 25, 2014 - Annual Pilgrimage to Chateau Lanessan; 5/23/2014-5/25/2014 (Chateau Lanessan, Bordeaux): Directly from the private cellar of the chateau, original cork with vintage clearly showing. Solid cork. Decanting is needed here, more than the other 50s but maybe 30-40 minutes. Once again this is a fragile wine so long decant over oxidises it. Much like the 55 it had a healthy solid core of fruit, well round , still with life and vibrancy in it. Such a joy at this age. 91-2
