Score 19.5/20 · Jancis Robinson MW, Apr 2002

Extraordinary in every way.Looked almost like black syrup, a PX, with gamboge rime. Smelt of treacle toffee and tea and moved like a thick treacle too.Very very sweet and concentrated. Certainly not fine but, amazingly, well balanced. A one-off. 23 and nearly at its peak. (JR)
