My notes from this session were lost. This was not as good a bottle as the others I have had in recent memory but was by no means dead. I think at least one person named it as wine of the night. I remember that it improved as the night went on so perhaps could have done with more time in the decanter.

1970 Taylor: Rough oh dear. Still Taylor, with characteristic heat. Later the roughness had softened considerably.
