June 18, 2023 - Half Century Magnum Lunch (La Trompette) (London): Lovely once more. Light on palate given quite a boozy nose. 17%
Lovely sweetness and amazing with cheese. -

June 16, 2023 - Magnum Mike's Magnificent Half Century (La Trompette): A lovely gold colour. Plenty of deep, figgy toffee and sticky barley sugar, though also refreshingly light on its feet. Persistent finish. Really delicious, but lacked the epic concentration of some other Rivesaltes.

January 13, 2023 - 50 års jubileum på Randaberg. appelsinskall, frisk, middels søt, valnøtt, relativt elegant. Mindre kompleks enn forventet, burde kanskje vært luftet
