November 12, 2021 - Golden yellow, some oxidative notes and not a ton of bubbles but still fresh. Nice acidity and generally very tasty.

May 7, 2021 - Bought at auction out of curiosity (birth year). Good ullage. 43 years old and the cork still popped slightly. Served at 12C. Gold colour, slightly cloudy. Small amount of fine bubbles but acid makes up for lack of fizz. Oxidative. Needs time in the glass. Honey and fortified (port) on the nose. Long palate. Over the hill but still interesting and enjoyable. I wouldn’t recommend deliberately leaving them this long.

May 1, 2021 - Dark amber in color with fine mousse.
Christmas toffee apple, madeira, aromatic spice with a touch of coffee. Potentially slightly on the decline but what a wine! Superb! -

Kolafärgad - galet mörkgul-brun
Doften ger Kola! Fudge, Toffe, Russin, Torkade Fikon, Kolabönor, Drömmar (kakorna) Hasselnötter
Efter sex timmar tillkommer Fruktcoktail, persika, rostatde toner, kaffe
Smaken - Kola, Smördeg, Mogen grape, syra kvar, lever verkligen fint, även om det är få bubblor kvar så finns de där. Tillkommer chocklad med tid
