Still seems so young, but starting to open. Lots of juicy red fruit and savoury finish. Lovely. I'll try the next one next year.

Bought at auction. Tasted ever so very slightly tainted, but still very nice. Fully resolved but plenty of life left. Tasted alongside the 1987, which was stunning.

Bought at auction. This was gorgeous - rich, mouthcoating, smooth but still with plenty of vigour. A Bordeaux blend but wilder than any Bordeaux.
