Saturday, January 26, 2019 - Flat gold and straw color. Nose of lemon zest, honeysuckle, and fino sherry. I also picked up on butterscotch, as Mr. Leve notes below, but I couldn’t place that scent until after the fact when I read his note. Clearly mature, but vibrant. The woody, madeirized element of the nose leads the attack alongside the floral and lemon notes and stretches on throughout the taste. Citrus resonates throughout, as does that honeysuckle. The acid component kept it somewhat fresh despite the age-appropriate oxidative element, although there’s no pucker. Mature. Pretty. Could use a touch more punch. Great now, but nowhere to go but down.
