Delord 1984 BA 40% 700ml cave-de-turckheim but also the ancient methodTasting note: Lovely gold ochre bright copper appearance. Muted opening sniff yields a subtle fragrance of nougat and sweet spice. Further aeration stimulates notes of candied orange peel, vanilla and dilute maple syrup. A soft, round entry follows through to light to medium bodied profile offering suggestions of light toffee, dried fruits and white pepper towards the finish which is dry and brimming with oak.
