Can I invoke Godwin's law by posting these (sadly genuine) Italian labels. Bad taste doesn't even begin to describe them, but it's rather cheeky that someone put the right hand bottle there considering the allegations about the previous incumbant's youth-time involvement with the Nazi party.

some great 80's/90's packaging.

I bought a few of them at auction a few years ago for a fraction of the price on release. Far too many though as it's just a nice tawny, nothing more.

As mentioned in my tasting note, this is a pretty impressive looking bottle in magnum format with the glass stopper and the rose cut into the heavy base - without the labels it also makes for a pretty impressive looking water bottle:

Sadly Barney, I think the blues will be in the mix for the '17 spoon.
More Draft picks.?!? I think we've recruited quite well this time around
and with Bolts at the Helm I think better days are coming. I hope.
