I have followed this all my life, not as often as I would wish, of course, but enough to convince me that it is magnificent! Vinous opulence, spicy, rich and many-layered. In 2013 and from double magnum, I just wallowed in it. Pure indulgence - what is the point of nit-picking when you are faced with a wine of this beauty and stature? In 2015, great, spicy, undergrowth nose and spice bazaar taste. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
