Bottled in 2008. Over 70 years in wood yet so undeniably fresh. A wild nasal ride with roasted espresso bean, honey, nectarine and treacle all showcase a mélange of aromatics intricately woven. Although the nose was completely stuffed with a broad range of scents, the palate delivered an equivalent and impressive assortment of flavors, from crème caramel to candied pralines, succulent mandarin orange and a creamy texture that was plush and exciting in this elixir. I've had this several times in the past and this was the best showing I've experienced and the ample acidity made the difference. Dense and voluptuous to roll around the tongue with extraordinary staying power on the ending. Think Great Garbo at 32 years old, (which she was in 1937) in sheer black satin!
