Evolved colour, oak quite pronounced on the nose. Impressive and generous but this bottle lacked a little energy and finesse despite still having generous layers of brambly fruit.

Deep ruby/garnet core, narrow rim. Hsowing rich dark fruit, cedar. Medium/full, again rich blackcurrant fruit, vanilla, soft tannins, fresh acids, some savoury notes on the long finish. Excellent

1989 Bordeaux Horizontal - London (Piccolino, Exchange Square): Very profound wine here. Nose is rich, fruit cakey and long. There is real controlled power here. Palate has brooding, dark fruits with a suggestions of high quality roasting juices. Savoury and very more-ish. With air some hints of sweetness on the nose. My third favourite and the table's second favourite wine of the night.

III. 3 bottles Christmas Eve from family cellar. Tasted all to make sure consistent and acceptable to serve. PnP. Excellent but unexpectedly preferred the 76 Ridge Monte Bello the following night. Greatly enjoyed. No formal tasting notes.
