(this was noted as magnum > 2 out of 7 on the back label with 138 regular bottles). Even at 14 years of age, the large format bottling has kept this quite youthful with its notably ripe yet very pretty nose of violets, spice and exotic tea. The rich, full-bodied and naturally sweet flavors that are utterly seductive as there is a beguiling succulence that contrasts with the gorgeously long finish that tightens up as the ripe tannins are extremely firm. I suspect that this is going to need even more time than my suggest initial drinking window but better a bit too early than too late.
