(94 g/l RS, 4.7 g/l TA) This has a more subtle aroma compared to the first three wines tasted (15 Years Sercial, 15 Years Verdelho, and 20 Years Terrantez), with light caramel. Swirling gives some candied citrus peel and a small bit of dried leaf. It tastes old and dusty, like some wood ash without the smoke. Then there were flavors of orange and fig jam. Nice medium body. The aroma improved with time, with cashew and caramel showing up. 92+ points.
