94 / 100 Wine Spectator This offers fine detail and texture on the palate, carrying an expressive range of poached quince and black currant fruit, coffee liqueur, garam masala, spun honey and raw almond. Fresh and focused, this is a boon from the hot 2003 vintage, showing a sense of finesse on the subtle finish. Disgorged winter 2013. Drink now through 2025. http://www.winespectator.com/wine/detail/source/search/not..
17 / 20 Jancis Robinson Bottle ID: 313 049 (disgorged in the 3rd quarter of 2013). Second bottle: Much cleaner and fresher. (The score and drink dates are for this second bottle.)
First bottle: Strange oily nose with a hint of coconut. And then soft on the palate. Not as sharply etched as the rest. Very odd! Really does smell of hair oil. A bad bottle? Sour finish. http://www.jancisrobinson.com/tastings/search?perpage=20&k..
