This bottle has been resting in my cellar for 40-some years and is now showing beautifully. Fill level is good but there is a great deal of crust on top of the cork. Once this is cleaned off, the cork falls into the bottle with a slight touch. The wine was decanted and then poured.
Medium light color. Beautiful red fruit smells and flavors. Strawberries, raspberries, nuts, caramel, sweet spices. Very pleasantly sweet; good counter for salty aged Stilton cheese. Sits lightly on the tongue and releases its pleasure. Well worth the wait.
