Bottle at home in Hackney - aged a good few years. Picked this up at Kris Wines back in the day. Pours lightly hazy orange-gold with a few bubbles atop. Rich, fairly sweet but still with a little musty dryness, a little apple sauce, low bitterness, just a little peel, touches of funk. Medium bodied, lightly oily and chewy. Lightly warming finish, more mild stewed apples, some musty cellar, red apples, a hint of caramel. Quite tasty.
