RARE BORGES
Borges, Sercial 1860
Rebottled 1977 by Peter Cossart of H, rebottled 1994 by Francisco Albuquerque of MWC
Slightly damaged wax capsules. Stencilled bottles with bin-soiled damaged labels. Levels: one into neck, one base of neck
Tasting note: Dark orange colour. Intense concentrated nose, quite impressive, old vintage furniture wax and fudge. Long aged in cask. Full rather sweet start of taste, rounded and mouth-filling. The richness from the cask aging concentration is followed on the back by a lingering well aged acidity. A great Sercial. A remarkably smooth but concentrated Sercial with a long after taste. June 2017. EV.
