Wow - fantastic ride tonight. This is showing so perfectly, with the age integrating seamlessly. No detailed notes, but we retuned to it after dessert round and it was still singing.

We opened five dessert wines right, and this was in the top two. Rich and explosive on the palette. Just want to keep sipping. Golden amber to the eye. Lychee, lots of lychee, on the nose and palette. This was added to the cellar in early 2012 on release - it’s done incredibly well.

This was a surprise showing tonight. Punching far above its weight. Nearly 20 years old and loving it this totally has rewarded extended cellaring. Smooth, fully integrated fruit and tannins so smooth, you’d almost have to refer to them as a liqueur. The fruit was so fresh that you’d be forgiven for thinking there was touch of RS perhaps showing. Sadly our last bottle!
