This great old wine was finally bottled up at the turn of the twenty-first century to commemorate the dawn of a new millennium, and it will probably see out the entire twenty-first century in fine style. The deep and beautifully refined nose offers up a celestial blend of desiccated cherries, fresh figs, a touch of chocolate, a gentle note of heather, dried eucalyptus, wild fennel, gentle cigar smoke, orange peel, a touch of sea salts and a nice topnote of rancio. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, pure and bottomless at the core, with bright, vibrant acids, laser-like focus, seamless balance and magical length and grip on the very, very complex and utterly refined finish. Flawless and breathtakingly beautiful juice. 2014-2100+. 100 - John Gilman, View from the Cellar #49 Jan- Feb 2014.

"This wine is actually, miraculously, commercially available. ‘We recommend standing it upright and decanting 24 hours before serving,’ says John Cossart. This wine has been in bottle for 15 years but still has the freshness of a solera wine. Green-edged mahogany. Pungent nose of bonfires. Round and punchy, very well balanced. Lots of acidity but not too much. Lovely sipping madeira. Very very fresh. Quite amazingly lively even though almost elixir-like." —Jancis Robinson MW
