Purchased as part of a parcel of four identical but unknown bottles at the Straker Chadwick sale of April 2007. Identified from the branded cork, confirmed when one of the four bottles was opened at the 2007 Port Forum Christmas event.

T20, red brown, 20% opaque. Very very soft, Cointreau, white pepper spice mid palate, still lovely.
