Fifth bottle from a half case purchased from the Dutch importer in 2018. Identical to my previous note from 23 August 2023, on very fine form, layered and rich, harmonious and well-defined, vanilla and brioche noted in particular this time. Has been performing at peak for a few years now, do not wait too long.

Fourth bottle from a half case purchased from the Dutch importer in 2018. Still perfectly fresh and energetic, with a creamy richness on the palate and beautifully developing aromatic complexity, which is now a heady cocktail of fresh citrus, spiced red apple and white nuts, with floral lift and a hint of oak. Convincing finish, flowing with gentle bitters, very good length. Showing very well, at perfect peak for my palate.

Super bottle. Rich and round, but with lovely balance. This is drinking very well right now, and I wouldn't hesitate to open another

Finally at its best. I should have waited more.

Started off strong, felt like it got a little flabby/one dimensional after 2 hours.
