Prieure Monastir Camp, Rivesaltes Size:12x750ml A distinctly cool and restrainedThe 1968 Rivesaltes has a lovely bouquet with marmalade, peat, toffee, dried prune and pain dpices. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, more cohesion than the 1959 with touches of espresso, red fruit, walnut and smoke, a little lighter on the finish than expected but with a persistent finish. Tasted with Philippe Gayral. Neal Martin
