Decant: 30 hours - Pale chestnut colour, slight hint of green on the rim. A touch of VA on the nose; underneath the marzipan are candied fruits, strawberry lozenges and lots of seville orange marmalade. Light into the mouth, delicate and showing elegant strawberry syrup. Nicely balanced from the acidity in the wine now that all the tannins have faded. Long length, dominated by flavours of seville orange marmalade. Very enjoyable wine. 90 points
