The 1992 Vin de Constance is now deep amber in color. It lacks the purity of recent vintages, displaying tertiary/peaty scents on the nose, while the palate has an appealing citrus note but feels as if it is beginning to dry on the finish. My advice? Drink soon. Tasted at a private dinner in London. (Drink between 2020-2024)
RS 103g/l, pH 3.7, TA 8.3g/l.
Nuts, Christmas spices, oranges and starfruit – delicious citric spritz. Caramel, cream, lemon, lime, orange, preserved tropical fruits. Still very powerful and focused, with a persistent length and a really quite youthful sort of concentration as well as plenty of secondary character.
