Anyone had a chance to try it yet ?
I think It's outstanding and will be grabbing 6 as soon as March hits

So tell us about it. What makes it outstanding compared to recent vintages? What did you like in particular about it?

Hunter, notes or impressions are useful. Fly-by's not so much.

I thought it was a limit of 3 at cellar door - unless they've relaxed the limit?

One usually travels with one's partner, no?

Compared to the 10 on release I enjoyed much more. Elegant but really complex. One could tell it will evolve into something special in years to come.

If your a stonewaller your allowed 6.

In that case, you should just be able to put your order form in, wouldn't imagine you have to wait until March.

There's a lunchen held in march will aquire then.

2012 is the best young BP I've had. I think the 2010 will age better though. These two vintages might end up being like the 96 & 98 debate.

I was left a little underwhelmed by this release... Maybe I was expecting to much? I thought the 2010 looked better. Still nothing touches the 2004 for me.

Agree about the 2004. One of my favourites after the 96 & 98. But I've heard plenty bag it too. It's just personal taste I guess.
