Dark amber and yellow edge color. Aromas of peanut brittle, caramel, tile, peat, and toffee. Full-bodied and so dense with a nectar-like intensity with toffee and caramel. Coffee bean. Acidity keeps it alive and energetic. So aromatic. Orange toffee. Only a few hundred cases made.
Remarkable color, slightly deeper than the 40 Year Old, with amber-red to walnut brown at its core, with a characteristic green tinge to the broad, amber-tawny rim. Spellbindingly uplifting on the nose, with delicate blossom, dried fruit, and butterscotch aromas, showing off the beautiful piquancy of age; gloriously rich, with a sublime, creamy mouthfeel and freshness that belies its age, leathery, spicy complexity (nutmeg, cinnamon) mid-palate, seamlessly leading to a graceful finish that seems to go on forever. This is a wine that immediately impresses you with its textural richness and focus on the palate, yet it is its overall delicacy, finesse, and perfect poise on the finish that really resonate. There can be only one mark for a wine with this provenance and caliber.
