Sandeman 1966, bottled by Grants of St. James. Evolved bronze colour, 30% opaque. Sweet dried orange on a beautifully perfumed nose. Very attractive. Wonderful palate, fabulous dried fruit and dried black cherry. Sparkling aftertaste, rich and complex. So delicious! 95/100. My joint second placed wine of the tasting. Tasted 23-Jul-2024.
