All but bricked through though with a slightly cloudy appearance. The nose though is clean with its expressive array of spice, sous-bois, Asian-tea and discreet floral nuances. There is a distinctly restrained mouth feel to the beautifully well-delineated middle weight flavors that are not especially concentrated though do possess excellent depth and persistence on the reasonably well-balanced finish that exhibits only a hint of acid tang. This has clearly peaked though it should have no trouble holding for up to another decade and overall, this is a fine effort in the context of what is typical for the vintage.
