  Wonderful at 54 years old.
  Still some acid and mature fruits.

  Absolutely cracking bottle, obviously tertiary but still alive with plenty of sweet red fruit, cigar wrapper and mushroom. Still has structure, too. Nothing is mind boggling but this is delicious. Top neck fill (impressive!)

  Still has enough fruit to be very enjoyable. This wine has aged remarkably well.

  Perfect bottle. Lovely nose of cigar tobacco, cedar and graphite. Great colour and good acidity for freshness. But all a bit four-square in the mouth with some green, rustic tannins and receding fruit. How I could imagine a 1994 tasting in 20yrs. Drink up, serve with steak. 92-pts

  Still pretty decent - particularly the nose is very inviting. But drying out a little at the back.
