Blandy's 1902 Malmsey

Opened to celebrate my daughter Isabella's Christening:

Malmsey, 1902 (Blandy) ****/*****

 Deep mahogany, almost dark coffee coloured with a thin olive green rim; high toned, lifted, toffee and roasted coffee beans with a touch of molasses on the nose; very rich, wonderful texture, creamy toffee, fudge, richness offset by a fine thread of nervy acidity, long and very fine. Still very good when re-tasted three weeks later. 18.5
