Saturday, November 5, 2022 - A private lunch with friends (at home): Second bottle from a full case purchased at auction in 2020. Stopper cork under a hard wax capsule. IVM seal. Decanted. Amber golden colour with green reflections. Immediately after opening the wine was very salty and quite tough, but it opened up pretty quickly to a very rewarding experience, and it continue to develop in the decanter on the second day. Wonderfully expressive Malmsey, sweet and honeyed and nutty, vanilla and orange marmalade, deep and rich but elegant and playful, tangy acidity is well integrated, sweet and complete finish with a nice salty kick, excellent length. A very fine Ma;lmsey.
