Score 19/20 · Drink 1970-2025, Jancis Robinson MW, Oct 2010

Dark tawny. Tangy nose but not a knockout. Some treacle toffee. Lovely on the palate. Very long and fresh and complex. I did not spit this. Long and complete. Very broad and gorgeous and vigorous. A great treat. Edge of crème caramel but lots of fresh fruit too. So vigorous on the finish. (JR)
