House | Gilberts | Vintage | 1937 |
Colour | Tawny with an olive green edge in colour and quite muddy. | Number of tastings | 1 |
Bouquet | Toffee, candy, ginger, burned sugar and a hint of pharmacy in the nose. | Score range | 16.40 - 16.40 |
Taste | Hardly medium body. Mature and a little old in taste but balanced with some quite delicate and very attractive old acidity. Easy to drink and enjoy with a rather long and very seductive finish. | Average score | |
Last tasted | 17th January 2019 | Point this date | 16.40 |
Comment | At the Wine Society 18% Tasting in Malmö. This wine had some Colheita character so even if the bottle said vintage we are not sure. | Tasters | SAI, JB, SS |
