  This presents as medium gold, definitely showing tertiary characteristics. Iit has a medium+ intensity on the nose. Displays brioche, white sour dough toast, caramel, burnt sugar aromas. Dry, medium+ acidity, medium+ body and flavour intensity. On the palette, caramel, burnt sugar, almond, brioche, peach, green apple. Creamy texture, long finish. (JC)

  Some gentle caramel oxidation is evident on the nose along with aromas of yeast and baked apple. It is full rich and creamy in the mouth with some toast and bulee development and a kiss of lemon like acidity on the finish. Drink up.

  On the nose, summer meadow, caramel, fudge, sherry, rubber and nuts.
  On the palate, Fudge, butterscotch, honey.
  Nice mousse long finish.
  A very nice wine but a little bit one-dimensional.

  Det skrevs en del om det här vinet, Mumms bevis på att de kan göra bra viner. Kan väl direkt säga att iallafall den här flaskan var ett bevis på motsatsen. Rätt så mogen doft med den typiska 1999ans gummitoner. Det är inget fel på doften men jag saknar lite av den komplextiten jag hade väntat mig och att en 1999 prestige är så pass mogen förvånar. Moussen är väldigt krämig men vinet saknar struktur. Kan inte exakt sätta fingret på vad det är men tråkigt kommer upp i huvudet. Inte alls vad jag förväntade mig.
