A touch of marzipan aroma. Very poised and in great shape. Flavour is rich from bottle age but not a touch of oiliness. A striking example. Drinking well and will do so for some time.

Oak, spice, slight glue notes over apricot, ginger, blowsy, floral top notes. Hmm. And I'm getting a slight touch of oxidation. In the mouth there are flavours of apricot, spice - lots of spice in fact, almost peppery heat. Front of mouth phenolic grip that is tongue coating. Very juicy. medium length. touch of non-intrusive alcohol here. Time required?
