56 Years and counting and still kicking. Bottle was in perfect condition with a high level. No flaws on the wine, fresh with nice acidity. Great secondary and tertiary aromas. Would have loved for it to be a bit longer

Drank blind. Mostly clear with a very slight haze. Garnet colour with lots of orange and brown. You could clearly see the extra age in the colour than compared to an 85 Batailley drank alongside. A wonderful nose that whilst mature, had lovely hints of flowers and there was still some fruit remaining on the nose and palatte. Extremely smooth and well balanced. This was a really great wine, and at 51 years old, very impressive. Drank with ST in KL.
