Jancis Robinson - 20/20 Points
A bottle that had been decanted 12 hours previously and, although there was the tiniest suggestion it has not been freshly opened, was absolutely stonking. So rich, sweet and concentrated yet with no dryness at all. Absolutely luscious. So rich, sweet and round - and actually livelier than the 1959 served alongside that had been decanted only a couple of hours before. (6/2015)
