OMG,
no I have not, but I have one in my wine fridge... my birth year... not expecting anything good at all, but you never know...... Penfolds say it's past it, but still has some vague life in a good bottle...
One day I will let you know, maybe my 40th next year!
Cheers

Last tried it about a year and a half ago and it was singing. If it has good provenance and the ullage level is ok it should be beautiful. At the tasting I tried it at it didn't look out of place alongside Bin 60A, Bin 7, numerous older Granges, etc......a lovely wine.

Here's hoping the couple I bought at Langton's last year are ok. Birth year for me too.
