Tasting Notes
4.4
I was really curious to taste this wine. Aside from being 22 years old, it is made without malolactic fermentation and with no oak usage. The result is mesmerising. Maybe too sophisticated, but it was my favourite wine of the evening (not by score). It has a beautiful bouquet of brioche, baked apples, mushrooms, sea-soaked pebbles, cider and Jerez. It has a wonderful multilayered palate and a long and persistent aftertaste.
