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 />
