Domaine Ghislaine Barthod Lunch (The Ledbury, Notting Hill, London): Decent deep colour. The nose was not overly intense and at first a little closed, but did open slowly to reveal some vestiges of dried red fruit, earthy notes, slight bitter note. A little austere on the palate, but not unattractively so and did broaden and deepen slightly with time. Crisp acidity and a moderate length, firm finish. Pretty good and still going strong. **

20 years on and still going strong, probably the best bottle so far. Not complex but feels perfectly mature, nothing out of place, just nicely savoury

Nicely mature. A simple wine that's still performing well.
