I am certain I had sent a copy of the correspondence to Jancis Robinson soon after it had happened. The incident took place about two years ago, not two nights ago. Two nights ago, I was enjoying Pichon Lalande 1989.

About five years ago, I tasted a real 1990 Louis Latour Corton-Charlemagne as part of a Louis Latour Corton-Charlemagne vertical at the Sante Wine Festival at the Four Seasons in Toronto. It was the best of the wines tasted which included the 1992, 1994, 1995, 1996 and 1982. The only problem with the tasting was that there were no similarities between any of the wines. Had it been I blind tasting I would never have guessed that these were different vintages of the same wine. I'm not asking for a photocopy of one vintage to the next, but like a piece of music or a work of art, you recognize who it is by and that was not the case.
