Tuesday, May 20, 2014 - A private lunch (Restaurant De Burgemeester *, Linschoten, Netherlands): Upper/top shoulder level. Bottled by Robbers & Van den Hoogen, Arnhem, Netherlands. Powerful, sweet fruit, lovage, rich, has tension and power, deeper in every respect than the 1955 La Conseillante that preceded it, but not as subtle and layered; slightly monolithic perhaps but creamy and accessible; complete and long. Perfectly healthy. Dutch bordeaux bottlings of the 1940's and 1950's can still be very good and this one was.
