I have a single bottle of 1908 Cockburn. Many years ago Michael
Broadbent gave it his 5-star out of 5-star rating. I have not seen any
recent tasting notes, so I am glad to hear that you find it drinking
well. Of course for a wine this old, my bottle may be anywhere between
outstanding and undrinkable. I bought my bottle many years ago at a
Chicago Wine Company auction. It likely came from a UK auction.
