May 22, 2016 - Old gold in colour but youthful in every other way. A floral, slightly honeyed nose and mouth coating apricot jam flavour. There is a musky bitterness too, but one that keeps it on the right side of cloying. This has a joyous confection to it, and so, it's no surprise that it works best in small quantities.

March 21, 2015 - Oh Agnes, dear sweet Agnes. I just about remember you from 5 or so years ago. You've aged quite gracefully. You still have that radiant amber glow. A perfume of apricot marmalade, although maybe just a hint of oxidation musk creeping in. Still fairly voluptuous but softly sweet. Maybe just turned the corner and in your final year or two. But your company was rather enjoyable once again. Perhaps Goo Goo Clusters was not the best food pairing for your style, but when in Nashville...

November 20, 2010 - Fairly deep amber gold colour. Aromas of quince marmalade, apricot and barley sugars. Smooth velvety sweet mouthfeel. Super acidity to balance the richness of the dried fruit flavour, and the sweetness. Very long finish.

September 23, 2010 - Great value stickie. Good acidity to hold up against the luscious sweetness. Beautiful nose, and long finish.
