I picked up a few of these as part of a mixed lot at auction, and on the strength of the only tasting note here expected very little from it. In fact it was very good, typically 1996 in its strictness but it was mature, red fruited, quite elegant and well balanced, excellent with food. I detected no bitterness and am happy to have several more to drink over the next 2-3 years

Bitter, no discernible fruit, no complexity. I can't imagine this had much quality at any stage.
