This is 2nd bottle (and I guess the last ) of 2007 vintage. As stated in January 2012 tasting notes this wine really had a nice cellaring potential. Now, being opened, it looks it will develop even further. I remember tye wine from very early when we tasted 2003 vintage.
How special! I remember tasting the 2003 as well. This is a gem.
ReplyDeleteyes, lots of memories to that vintage
