Quite dark and slightly cloudy, much more pronounced nose of dried fruit and burnt sugar, a bit of tingly acidity but some sweetness and pronounced dried fruit, a little hollow though and finished unclean.

The Fine Wine Experience: Rare German Treasures (The Bentley Kempinksi Hotel, London): A slightly cloudy, very old gold, or maybe "tan" would be a better colour descriptor. Very dried out on the nose with some burned raisins. Unfortunately, this seemed to me a bit sherrified and muddy on the palate and, all in all, fairly dead. Given a few moments before it keeled over altogether, it did, however, show a touch of sweetness lingering on and a touch of acidity.
