I had a unique opportunity to taste this wine. Wine was thick, viscous and deep brown in color. Nose of fig with layers of raisins and maple syrup. Taste was more dried fig with a smooth/velvet finish.. Wonderful... 1931....

This must be the third or fourth time I've had this wine (not to mention many other vintages). Density of motor oil, and with a stunningly deep rich flavor that, despite no longer being novel for me, still shocks and awes. Special if you can tolerate the intensity.

A unique experience- like a dessert all by itself. Almost syrupy. Amazing nuanced flavours-so intense after all these years. Decadent.

Thick wine, unbelievable texture and finish. Pure deliciousness. Not too sweet. This is incredible.

Still a fantastic 97 in my book. Opened to celebrate the rare, coveted "Diamond" award earned by a friend's daughter in a junior dance competition.
