Cracked the neck whilst reorganising my cellar so was forced to snap it off and decant before it spilled all over the floor...
A spectacular wine:-) I love these Cockburn bottlings - phenomenally robust corks that just keep the wine alive indefinitely. This was a lovely dense brick colour with a nose of cedar, lavender, hints of tobacco, sour blackberries, and mulch. Lovely balance with an edge of fine acidity and a hint of tannin at the end. Great stuff!
