| WA 98 (10/1998): Packaged in a thick, antique glass bottle, the 1940, which had considerable heavy sediment, revealed a slightly cloudy amber color. A spectacular nose of roasted coffee, fruitcake, spice, honey, and nuts soared from the glass. In the mouth, this wine revealed extraordinary fullness, richness, and lively, tangy acidity, which holds its considerable weight and massiveness together. The spicy, honeyed character continues in the mouth, and while there is no doubt considerable residual sugar, the zesty acidity is refreshing and uplifting. This is a provocative and compelling Muscat that must be tasted to be believed. Moreover, I suspect it will last for 20 more years. |
