  October 23, 2021 - A surprise and a delight. An Avery’s bottling at more than 50 years old. Ullage was at best ok at about 5cm. Cork could only just be removed with a Durand and was black from top to bottom. I left alone for a couple of hours.
  A brick and plum colour with great clarity. Raspberries , wild strawberries, undergrowth, five spice. Bright red fruit with a lovely balance between fruit and acid.
  I wish i had taken it to the Paulee last night. So much better than the La Tâche 1972.
