I bought this many years ago. It was fine exactly what it says on the label and nothing more. Some botrytis and good sweetness and very pleasant but nothing to bang the table about

Oh my goodness me this was pretty much exquisite. Colour still fabulous (though we were in an area with subdued lighting) still very clean and pretty much entire to the rim. Lovely nose with hints of parma violets and cinnamon and soft marzipan and the palate matched it all the way. Had good depth and sustained well but maybe a tiny, tiny bit short. We were drinking some good wines with great company but every time this wine circulated it stood on the shoulders of the others and smiled. I was keen to drink it because I thought it was likely to be way past its best. I was very wrong. Probably still got another couple of years in it. Loved it
