I have heard that the Pesquera brand is losing its lustre but this was very attractive if not the most subtle and complex of wines; 16/20+.

How about that. Good for Chidaine!
Do you think the Huet might have seemed less 'complete' because it will have a longer life than the Chidaine and has not yet fully sorted itself out?
