Just polishing off the dregs of the SW50. This is a good wine from a lesser, but distinctive vintage. It has a really classy bouquet, lovely on the palate, then as you swallow - it vanishes! - no finish to speak of at all - but a very nice donation Simon - Thankyou!

Regretably, left in the hotel room and not where it was needed!
