"One of my favorite wines of the night, the 1988 Hermitage is simply breathtaking in its beauty and profoundness. Sage, rosemary, sweet tobacco and dried flowers are some of the many notes that lift from the glass in a translucent, weightless, yet wonderfully deep wine. May I have another glass, please? Wow..." Vinous, May 2014
Notes: 3cm, Lightly scuffed capsule, nicked, lightly wrinkled, very lightly damp stained, very lightly scuffed label, sign of slight past seepage.
