This is an over 80-year-old blend with amazing toffee, caramel, tangy orange and light balsamic character. Medium body, very sweet, yet there’s a freshness and lifted state that gives it length and intensity. So long and flavorful. Rum and raisin. Shows real very old tawny character. It’s like you are in the aging cellars with dirt floors and old wooden vats. Drink or hold.

Brown, rust color with a bright yellow edge indicating very old age. Aromas shows subtle caramel with lime skin and hints of dried fruits and ripe figs. Honey, too. It’s full-bodied, very sweet and compacted with an oily texture and refined sweet fruit and light toffee on the finish. A blend of wood-aged wines older than 80 years. Drink or hold.
