My last bottle, consumed at a N Rhone tasting with friends. I decanted an hour in advance - which was a mistake. It was great for about 30 mins, then fell apart. Drink up!

N Rhone Chez R: This was lovely but just missed the mark somehow. I suspect going through some sort of mute phase, or just suffered by being sat beside such grand wines. Will leave it a little while to get my next one out...

Sunday Jubilee Party (Leafy West London): Fourth bottle from a case. On opening - funky funky funky. Just the wrong side of the barnyard - might be brett, might be something else. After an hour or two blew off a lot, and by the next day a great deal cleaner, but still nowhere near the heights of other bottles.

Super! The oak is quite prominent but no bad thing. Intense fruit and serious leather and pipe tobacco and such energy and lift! Absolutely super. This really is a superb wine. So so good - power, personality, potency.
