Nose of sweet browned butter. The palate is dense without being cloying. Some alcohol on the edges, but it is just a hint. The butterscotch midpalate transitions seemlessly to a roasted appleskin and flowerstem finish. Very fresh - I would never have guessed that this was 15 years old. And I'm really liking it now on night 3 of being open!

Drank surprisingly well for being as old as it is. Overall this wine had good balance, was lightly oaked, and had a decent golden color.
