Cockburn--Vintage 1908 Level: bottom neck; cracked wax capsule, hand blown glass "Arguably the greatest-ever Cockburn; palish ruddy-hued old tawny; good fruit, touch of mint and liquorice, fully opened out after 40 minutes, sweet, slightly raisiny, glorious, and still excellent the next day. Medium-sweet, full-bodied, very rich, good texture. A very assertive heavyweight, yet ethereal, cognac-like, fabulous flavour. Last tasted November 1990. *****" MB, Vintage Wine 3 bottles per lot
