4.0This wine, with its remarkable aging process of 10 years in the bottle after 28 years in barrels, defied initial expectations to deliver a simply delicious experience. It is reminiscent of a non-fortified, aged Madeira but with its own unique twist. It unfolds with rich notes of date fruit, nuts, maple syrup, and apricot jam, creating a relatively complex and enticing profile. The wine's good acidity perfectly counterbalances its sweetness, leading to a long aftertaste that's both round and well-balanced. While it may not reach the heights of complexity some might seek, its ability to impress is undeniable.
