An emergency was declared for Monday 14
th April 2025, at the
Boot & Flogger .
A 1977 was proffered, so another was, so another was, and the planning attracted towards an evening of 1977s. This is good.

One of several bottles from the C&B broking list in 2020.
Appears to be in good condition. Has Wine Society mention at bottom of label.
Capsule and cork pretty good.
Decanted 0815-0830 on morning of tasting. In decanter for approximately seven hours before going back into the bottle.

Deeper end of the spectrum. Pale rim.
Lovely cherries on nose.
Rich and warn palate with black cherries. A glorious drink.
Fully resolved. Lovely bottle. Voted very slightly behind the Fonseca.
