Beautiful wine. 25 years old and super fresh. Nice acidic backbone, citrus and pithy notes, then bags of fruit: mulberry, blackberry. A bit of a bitters taste, mixed with cedar and tree bark - think dried autumn leaves. In its prime now, but seems like it could last a few more years too.

Nose: initially lychee, turned into strong honeydew melon, pine, walnut, ash, faint herbs. Taste: melon start, softened in the glassvery silky tannin, strawberry, sherbet finish. Even later later, started to get candied orange peel. Lacks a little body, but this is seriously good on the aromatics and texture. Evolved fast at the start, grab an early glass and drink slowly over a few hours. Great stuff
