An exceptionally rare library bottling, disgorged in 2015 and benefitting from the additional virtue of a long post-disgorgement ageing. Forget the theory and the numbers, however; the taste confirms everything. From the near luminosity of the green gold hue, through the waves of aromatic pleasure, all the way to the long saline finish, this is magical indeed. There is purity and generosity at the same time; how else could you juxtapose ‘flintstone’ and ‘lemon posset’ in the tasting notes? The dosage of 3g/l is low for Gramona but in no way compromises the pleasure principle: quite the reverse. Only 100 bottles made, alas.
