The nose was layered and wonderfully refined, showing spice dried orange, tobacco, dusty florals, dried cherries, exotic Indian spice, and hints of smoke. On the palate, I found remarkably vibrant textures, giving way to saline-minerals, spiced citrus, and saturating tart black cherry with saline intensity and dried citrus tones. The finish was long, long, long, with spiced citrus, wood and balsamic tones.

Wow… 2nd time in 6 months, really lucky. Intense nose with burnt sugar and marmalade, eventually giving way to white fruit. So fresh, concentrated yet balanced on the palate. Something special...
Price based on rarity and age. This is a tremendous and of course emotional wine full of aromas, concentrated and well-rounded. The '72 or '69 Single Harvest drunk alongside were not less enjoyable to be honest.
