Dist: Jun 1995 Btl: 2019
Tasted: July 2019
A rich, mature nose of what feels like refill sherried raisinated fruit with hints of raspberry, barley, dusty oak, sweet ginger spices, wood char and vanilla. Exceptionally well balanced and fragrant. Given time it opens to show some almost chardonnay-esque juicy fruit, gooseberry and menthol.
The palate opens with more noticeable creamy/ toffee’d oak and an almost rum-like column still dried fruit character. Wonderfully mature with malt, dusty oak, raisin, prune and sultana notes following. Hints of sharp citrus come through on the middle to balance and the mature spices are sublime. Long and juicy with plenty of toasty oak, chardonnay-esque fruit, ginger, subtle cocoa finish. Wow! That is absolutely stunning!
