Had this with a lovely dinner. At first the smells are bizarre but then the wine begins to settle into a light bodied emalgamation of cherry raspberry earth and layers of joy. For one that could have gone either way, this was solid after 48 years in a bottle!

From a low ullage bottle this did have some slight oxidative notes. There were hints of chocolate. some curry powder and iodine things going on. It was sweet and vinous and had pretty good length. I have another bottle, in better nick that I suspect will be excellent.
