Decant: 6 hours - Very pale, light orange rim and a butterscotch coloured centre. Unpleasant nose of burnt butterscotch and cabbage. Empty, neutral entry, very light flavours, nothing but light brown sugar. Very light palate. Dried out on the immediate aftertaste, before a very long finish of brown sugar. Very bland, except for the finish. 80 points
