18? Wow, nice find Paul, and thanks for the chance to "simma down" with this one. The nose is full of nice vanilla, honeysuckle, barley, and sweet white grapes. The palate is a warm inviting layer of butter cream icing, oil, with a heavy mouth coat. Vanilla is definitely in your face neat, and the finish is a tad hot with dry alcohol. I put a few drops of water on it to see what else we can get from this glass. Grapes and light fruit come more to the forefront on the nose. It now almost has a white wine quality. The water helped with the finish for me. The nice mouth coat is still there, with a buttery finish, but it's far from a complex dram. I'd lean toward a 3.25. This is "Bread and Butter" by The Newbeats. Try not to laugh! =)
