Bottle at Delirium. Totally flat. Aroma is booze, fruity, raisins. Taste is crazy, loads of fruit, sweet, marzipan, very easy to drink. Feels very voluminous in the mouth. Strange but in a difficult way to explain.

750 ml bottle, 2007 vintage, sampled in 2009. Clear amber body with no head. Strong aroma of dry fruit like prunes and raisins, caramel and warming alcohol like sherry. Flavor is as expected from aroma, super sweet with dry fruit and caramel balancing perfect on a hot alcoholic edge, not sticky, not boozy, just delicious. Sweet and vinous in aftertaste with a hint of oxidation. Lovely.
