I stayed up a couple of hours after the crew left to dance with this gem.
This seductive, caressing, subtle and intoxicating beauty from the 1996 vintage, goodness gracious, whats it like from a decent vintage then?
Strawberry infused with mushroom, forest floor, cream, lavender notes, with a glorious light mouthfeel so common from the better wines of this vintage.
Gotta stop writing, could do pages on this one...Thanks TC -
