sterling + auctioneers commission 15% on which VAT 15% - July 2009. the cork was fragile with evidence of seepage so we drank it. black cork hard as old oak and 2/3rds eaten away, v v low shoulder,
in the glass, still and initially white with rich and alcoholic smell, after 3 minutes turned brown and tasted like bog standard fizz,after 5 minutes turned white again, and tasted refined but not rich any longer.
most enjoyable experience.
