In response to your feedback, some of it published in your turn, I'm publishing a list of those 1997s that have impressed me as being better than most. I don't honestly think they are going to get much better than they are now, but now that they are priced sensibly, they can provide useful current drinking, and are certainly much readier than 1995, 1996 or 1998.
