  As for improvement, that will depend on your preferences. I don't think that vintage is much worthy of the investment, but to another at our table, he preferred the dense, youthful flavour of the 2012 over all others poured that day. (I'd rather three bottles of the Coudoulet for mid-term cellaring)
