Decant: 1 hour - Bottled by Christopher & Co. Cork branded "Graham Vintage..." but actual vintage obscured by weevil damage. Estimated from the bottle to be 1948-1955. Cork weevil damaged but bottle not showing signs of leaking despite being down to mid-shoulder.
Reddish brown in colour, 40% opaque. Very smelly on the nose, lots of bottle stink and black treacle. The bottle stink comes through on the palate; treacle but only in flavour and not textture, which is lightweight and slightly watery in texture. Brown sugar and apple juice. Some rounded acidity on the aftertaste, with a great lingering (modest in volume) chocolate praline finish. 85 points
