93 Points

Sunday, June 21, 2020 - 92-93. Birth year Acker auction bottle that gave me heebie jeebies once I finally got around to opening it, and noticed the label was a photocopy :( But the moldy cork came out with a 1947 imprint and lots of sediment on the bottom. Decanted in AM and drank 12 hours later, but was better 24 hours later. Great nose. Bottle ran a little hot with cinnamon spice heat, but serving at cooler temps worked. People loved it with the blue cheese, although I preferred it with the very aged cheddar. Serving with the quince jam worked really well. The dates we got were way too sweet.
