F55: Orange, 20% opaque. Nose had oranges, and ‟not good”. To taste very tawny, with runny honey, but no longer a VP. JDAW.

Very pale, amber, slightly hazy. Unknit nose, alcohol standing out from some green apples. Soft entry, with the powerful apple acidity dominating. This has the palate of a basic or tawny reserve. There is heat on the aftertaste and a short finish. An oxidised bottle. NR. 11-Jun-12. Decanted 3 hours.
