Drink 2005-12

Remember the 2001 of this wine was the group favourite in the previous evening. This was even more glorious – at the peak of its silky, complex powers. (Well they may have ripped off the Pichon Lalande label, I couldn’t help feeling…) Beautifully balanced, at the peak of its powers, this was a concentrated ripe Cabernet with real complexity and a little more freshness than the other 1995 wines.
