W63: from a bottle of jdaw1’s with a VTS fill. Heat on the side of the tongue, and oranges. Good length, full of those oranges.

On the night: Lightest if the wines from the 60s. Oranges on the nose - quite thin on entry with aniseed, a little heat and then some chocolate in the finish.

4 days later: Nice soft nose with some red fruits. Smooth entry - dried out with lots of heat. Finish starts out quite dry but then long sweet and very pleasant.
