1952 Climens

1952 Château Climens;

Top shoulder fill. Amber, pure honey, some polish and wax, very mature and not that complex nose. Quite fresh acidity, not that sweet any more, gives more on the palate, getting more complex with air, very long finish. 90

Broadbent: A so-so sample in 1954, and at the château, tasted ex-cask it was good but I preferred Coutet. Nine far more complimentary notes between 1959 and 1982 and different bottling's. Good but not great, though without much room for improvement. 1982 ****
