Tasting notes
Tasted again in March 2016, the NV Rare Muscat has a deep brown color with a distinctive green tinge to the rim. The nose is, in a word, incredible and terribly difficult to describe, which is a great thing. Rancio doesn't begin to capture the complex, oxidative signature: honey coated walnuts, molasses, dates, sandalwood, baking spices, old chesterfields, aniseed and potpourri with fleeting, ethereal wafts of incense, roasted nut and exotic spice notes. Rich, unctuous and gratuitously multi-layered, this is one for the hedonists.

Brown black but with enormous sweetness and rather metallic dryness and austerity in the end. Really taken to a limit of concentration and with a hint of some curry spice – cumin. Just too much like hard work. Too dry on the end. (JR)
