Note di degustazione
This is a wine that has in its lifetime received a few perfect scores, and it is still delivering, if slightly more quietly than in may have done in the past. Think tobacco leaf, white truffle, embers, cold ash, redcurrant, saffran, rust... you get the picture - extremely special, fragrant and full of joy. The bottle was brought by Mark Pardoe, served in one of the Berry Bros wonderful hidden dining rooms in St James, and was originally in his father's cellar. Just a thoroughly special wine.

The owner of this cellar bought 300 bottles of this gorgeous wine! Deep crimson. Rich and mineral with real lift and some balsam notes. Very lively even though it is clearly extremely mature and well-integrated and nuanced. Dense with an attractively sandy texture. After a while in the glass it gently started to lose its beautiful fruit but it's a marvel for its age (like the 1950 Mission). (JR)
John Avery brought this bottle, found during a 'reorganisation' of the famous Avery cellar. Extremely rich and broad. Great sweet bricks and minerals character. Full, sweet and persistent. The star of the show. (JR)
