This is a remarkable wine. I have been lucky enough to taste through a few vintages of these museum releases, and they are all completely mesmerising. The 2009 is a once in a lifetime drinking experience.

Why do we love this wine?
2009 was a low yielding vintage. What was harvested, though, was of the highest quality. The resulting wines are dually scarce and exceptional. This is powerful and driving. A true celebration of deep, rich black and blue fruit. It is weighty in the glass with real gravitas - commanding of your attention and your time. As it opens up it delivers aromatics across all spectrums, florals, meats, wild berries, umami, earth... it goes on and on, as does the wine. The finish is long and marked by still peppy acidity combined with grainy (and somehow youthful) tannin. Ethereal and enigmatic - a truly special museum release. If you are a lover of the aged and rare (as I am), I implore you: buy this wine.
