Reacquainting myself with one of my first loves and it still holds up after all these years. The smoke is there upfront (the first pour from the newly opened bottle made me think of diesel), but when you let it sit for a while in the glass the sherry starts showing up. I almost get raisins on this mixed with dark fruits and the taste lingers quite long, goes a bit dry at the end which only entices you to take another sip! Might order a second bottle right now, yum!
