  Was part of Thanksgiving dessert, and what a treat. Cork seemed to be on the edge of failing, but as is typical with these higher-alcohol fortified wines, it survived beautifully. Great color with just a bit of sediment in the bottom of the bottle. Exactly the complex, sweet (but never too sweet) flavors you'd expect from an old tawny (i.e. a 30 or 40 year). It's interesting to me that they used to print a bottling date -- 1976 in this case -- and I'd have loved to compare it to a current release to see if 45 additional years in the bottle changed anything.
