100 Points

Wednesday, January 15, 2020 - LS ullage ‘De Luze & Fils’ bottling, chimney brick red, mature cloudy colour, with light red core and distinct watery rim; incredibly ripe and sweet orange, citronade bouquet, mulberry, whiff of floor polish, forest path, and bewildering sweet accents of praliné chocolates, and sandalwood, delicate caramel, sheer undetectable oxidation notes, just a wonderful nose considering its age and specs; equally delicate palate, harmonious, no signs of disaccord, with persistent structure, leather tones, nuanced creaminess, typical tobacco notes, flattering acidity, and an amazing sweet, lasting Tempranillo like finish (+30s). In context of being probably ‘released’ in 1902 when Baron Philippe was born, its assemblage remaining a best guess today at 120 years of age, this simply deserves… unforgettable hall of fame. 100P
