Light golden-brown colour. Intense and highly complex aroma that includes dried fruits (unsulphured apricots and citrus peel) as well as bitter orange and walnuts and so much more. Mouth-filling gorgeousness that is both intensely sweet and perfectly balanced. The intensity you might expect from such an old wine but still so vibrant, with flavours of dried apricots, caramelised bitter orange and nuts. Concentrated and yet so fresh. You only need a small sip of this to last a very long time. Fabulous concentration and balance. A little bit salty on the finish but not excessively so (unlike some very old sherries). Drink anytime
