So incredibly young, excellent fruit, powerful and concentrated, very high acidity masks the sweetness, immensely energetic. Perfect with lemon tart. Now - 2030.
20 Years Old. Black and treacly colour; liquid Christmas pudding, by no means cloying or sickly sweet, on the contrary multi-dimensional and harmonious.
