1995 vintage. Lovely dark ruby/garnet, slight browning at the rim. Black cherry, raspberry, cigar box, hint of vanilla. Some funk and mineral in the finish. 12.5% ABV. From the FIL’s collection, this bottle is surprisingly better than the last one.

Dec 22nd, 20181995 vintage. Nose of tart cherry syrup with a whisper of anise. Well on its way to brown. Tastes sharp, harsh, corky. Well past reasonable time frame for enjoyment. From the FIL’s collection, and unfortunately I think there’s yet one more bottle. 12.5% ABV according to the label, no idea where it’s at now.
