25% opacity, amber. Lively caramel nose. Soft, chewy, caramel, hints of sage, leading to gentle citrus notes (as is often the case with '75 vinatge). Well balanced. Not too shabby for a '75.

Brownish red but very light and very clear. Not much on the nose for me. A very strong palate of oranges. Possibly a bit of acrid burnt orange late on the finish.
