Pours and looks like Maple Syrup. Raisins with a hint of nuts on the nose. Chocolate giving way to crème caramel. Outrageously long and pleasantly round finish. Eighty years old and this may have another 3 decades to go?
A flawed bottle may be affected by cork taint, heat (maderized), oxidation, or excessive sulfur. Additionally, some people consider wines tainted by Brettanomyces (Brett), a non-spore forming genus of yeast, a flaw although there is much controversy surrounding the subject.
