Thirty five years on.
Ruby. The bouquet is crisp, clear, direct and full, very 1995; there is a stony aspect, airs of pomegranate, Vosne spices, second flush darjeeling. This is pretty seamless, a compact density present. Once backward, it now has a linear quality, and ends with a firm push. Droplets of raspberry fruit and salt tang appear on the aftertaste. It is a very accurate 1995 in its focused expression. It grips with its tannins, is fine and true to its year. Now – 2040+.
