After 4 days in decanter. Bottled by Edward Young Co. London. Unknown bottling date.
Amber gold colored with an olive oil meniscus.
Musky aromas with tangerines, almonds, hazelnuts.
Medium weight with flavors of toffee and lime. A rich style.
Has a very long, nutty, citric finish. Has good depth and acidity.
When first opened, it seemed simpler and short of acidity. Some bottle stink. With time, it gained depth, lost the bottle stink and gained in fruit and acidity. 94 points.
