Aged wonderfully, especially considering the cork fell apart and I don’t think this has been stored perfectly= currant, plum, dried potpourri, good acidity.

Burns Night dinner with rare roasted tri tip basted with Lagavulin. Drinking near fresh with mellowed tannin but bright fruit. Perfect match with the beef and the hint of peat smoke from the whisky added a happy note. Slainte Mhath.

Absolutely gorgeous and unique. For a 23yo wine the complexity on the nose and palate is still bumpin, and the tannins are silky and smooth, with a little grab here and there just to let you know it’s past. Nose of rich dark berries, old driftwood (from Collin) with a medium body that’s fruit forward, somewhat smoky, and beautifully balanced with hints of dried herbs, and sage. Absolutely amazing.

Do I dare claim the peak day (08), month (12) and year (2018) of this extraordinary 2000! Simply sublime. Round and full of fruit with complementing tannins that make you keep coming back. Hats off to you Madam Corison. Befitting a 70th celebratory birthday; elegant and noble in its maturity.
