Fully mature. Amber colour. Honey, caramel, apricotjam and Apple pie. Pinches of orange zest and almondpaste. First impression is very sweet and intense, but it finishes fairly fresh, elegant and well balanced.
Very good.

Honey dominates, complimenting crisp fruit notes. Wasn't quite sure what to expect given the age but, apparently, 20 yr is still quite young for this wine. Delicious nonetheless.
