Mature colour, lightly pigmented; 50% opaque. Vigorous palate with youthful fruit that somehow manages to be lovely and fragrant at the same time, with lots of freshness, a freshness which is similar to the Dow 1970 tasted alongside. Lots of floral perfume on the palate. A gentle milk chocolate and dried blueberry finish and lots of fragrance. Served blind, this was guessed to be Tesco 1994. 88/100. Tasted 09-Jan-20. Decanted 22 hours.
