Amber-golden color, the nose reveals intense notes of tropical fruits and fruit compote. The mouth is ample and generous, revealing beautiful flavors of fresh grapes, dry apricots, peach, acacia, honey, cedar wood as well as cooked pears. A lot of concentration for a wine that is on average 25 years old.

Roy Hersh 93 points: "Seductive notes of pine, apricot, hazelnut and brioche. Dense and complex from the very first sip, it evokes a sense of more than just 20 years. Smooth and concentrated with tastes of citrus, almond paste and golden raisins, yet it's even drier that the 10 year old version with tension from near-perfect acidity, great concentration and focus."
