Information on the vintage 1985 red Bordeaux:
This vintage...seems to encapsulate all that is good about Bordeaux : its weight, its balance, its character.
It is certainly my favourite vintage of this splendid decade typifying claret at its best.
I am more than ever convinced that this is one of the most perfect vintages, both for drinking now and keeping.
