New Year’s Eve leftovers forgotten (open) in the fridge after an epic night and a full day of napping. So after 36 hours it’s still pretty righteous amber bliss, a bitter edge with singular notes of butterscotch, anise, petrol, citrus rind, pine, and the faintest bit of untanned leather on the way way back....nice performance. very easy late morning armchair drinking. vendor says 2015 but the bottle is not marked.

Jan 2nd, 2021Smoothly textured, raisins, sweet and savory. First mouth feels like a great dessert wine but finishing off fresh and zesty. Nose is almost like a light port with a hint of mint.
