Monday, March 30, 2015 - Dark golden-orange in color, some wooly chenin on the nose but pretty low-key. On the palate is where this takes off - almonds, blood orange, amazing acidity which balances the weight the wine has acquired with age. I've never had the sec with this much age on it and I feel pretty sorry for killing those bottles before they could transform into this. As the earlier review noted, this is probably too powerful for seafood but seems like a natural match with quail, duck, guinea or any other dark fowl with an affinity for oranges.
