Friday, October 29, 2010 - The lemon fruit on the nose smells remarkably youthful, there is some toasty maturity but this is really striking me as being quite undeveloped for a 14 year old bottle of fizz. The combination of fruit and that toasty, biscuitty complexity make this a most pleasing bottle of fizz to sniff. But I need a drink after being awake for much too long so I’ll stop sniffing. By arse, 60s student dormitories have less acid than this palate. If it were not for its richly buttered-toast and powerful fruit flavours this would seem rather severe. The balance is just perfect, though, a joy to drink and no rush to finish off any bottles you may have.
