'Just as there is a world of difference between a five-year-old wine and  50-year-old one, tasting old wines is a completely different exercise  from tasting young wines.' - Jancis Robinson

‘If you set out to look for faults, you’re bound to find something to  complain about. The point is to appreciate their elegance and complexity  – and to think about the romantic notion of what was happening when the  wine was made.’

- Jan-Erik Paulson, rare wine merchant

'With time and experience in tasting  older wines, a lot of consumers develop an appreciation for the taste of  mature Bordeaux wine after the secondary characteristics are truly developed.' - Wine Cellar Insider
