ageing : Superb now, but will mature and improve for a further 10 years.

in the vineyard : Picked from 19 year old vines, with relative low yields at 25Balling

in the cellar : Picked before too many raisins - want intense muscadel flavours, but not too much raisins. Fortified with neutral 96% sprit after 36 hour skin contact. Unwooded
