Served blind.
Warre 1980, decanted 5½ hours. Young colour, dark red with some evolution in the tone. A little baked on the nose, some concentrated fruit (like the burnt bits of a fruit pie). Languid and full of fruit, with great grip. Rich and opulent fruit, slightly dry but with a wonderful full mouthfeel. Served blind, was guessed to be Dow 2003. 92/100. Drunk 16-Oct-22 from the fabulously beautiful but fabulously fragile Spiegelau Definition white wine glass.
