2000: clean, fresh, chocolatey but only a little burn on the<br />
finish thanks to very slow disillation.<br />
10: deep apricot nose, fresh, clean and floral, a little burn.<br />
20: fresh candied fruit on nose and palate.<br />
30: deep baked pineapple nose, rich, rancio-y but a trifle<br />
alcoholic.<br />
*VSOP: 43%, nice, rich, well-balanced at twelve years. Any<br />
other producer would have called it a Napoleon!<br />
XO: 45%, over twenty years, rich and long but still some<br />
burn on the finish, probably due to the strength.<br />
1975: 47%, very rounded, slightly woody nose, complex<br />
with good rancio.<br />
*Hors d’Age: a truly serious fifty year old, exceptionally<br />
concentrated and complex with overtones of candid fruits<br />
and sandalwood.<br />
