This was clearly a very old wine. Intense, delicious and simply beautiful. A big thanks is due to Dirk for allowing us to share this!

At the next auction of Sylvies in Belgium (3 feb) there is a bottle of this on the list. The estimate is not so bad, so a good chance to buy one if you're interested.
