Sunday, August 6, 2017 - Quite complex and relatively youthful as far as aged PX go. Medium (+) to deep mahogany brown with some ruby hues. Very thick and viscous. The nose is clean, intense and quite complex, with molasses, raisins, prunes, caramel, dates, orange liqueur, espresso, dark chocolate, vanilla, hazelnut, almonds, toffee. The palate is sweet, but not cloying, with medium to medium (+) acidity, medium tannins and high alcohol. The palate is consistent with the nose, but also shows a slight balsamic, savory component. It is drinking well now and should last indefinitely, with lots of potential for even greater complexity. This is a very nice PX at a fair price. WS is 90, RP is 98
