My fav Pom @ £150 but past it’s prime 😜 Burnt oxidised sherry & over aged tawny port in a dark garnet colour but that’s about all it had - luckily more VCC to come for 79 & 98 😁 The cork was intact, clean & wine clear so not a faulty Wine just oxidised darn it! OK but not enjoyable for me 😛 — 2 years ago
