From a 375 at the BRIT wine acution/dinner -google BRIT.org and learn about this wine event.
Decanted about three hours.Not too hot . Very dense very deep fruit on the nose, mid palate and a long finish. I would give it the board average of 93.5!
Nice to try from a half bottle.I would think that the regular and larger formats need about 20 years! Don't know how one post gave it 88 and another 89?
Seriously , I think 94-95 points is on target and time may get it above that. I don't quite see 98 points but maybe when Roy first tasted it that was correct.
It could go there again.
