Enjoyed a magnum with our good friends. All of us were in agreement that this was a superb wine.

This frankly was my least favorite vintage of BRAND when I joined them 2014. It's improved markedly since then, is gaining weight and complexity, and held its own against the 1996 Château Margaux

This wine has really gained weight in the last two years and is showing the way a great Pritchard Hill wine should. Loads of fruit but a steely backbone that adds depth and complexity.

This vintage of BRAND was my least favorite when I joined them as Estate Director. I felt it was a little lean. However, based on this bottle it looks like the wine is gaining some weight and really developing into another special wine. Bravo Philippe.

Paired side by side with the 86 Margaux. Decanted for four hours. Of all the BRAND wines this one HAS to have a long decant time.
