TN: Seppeltssfield 1998 VP

[Waiters Friend]

Purchased in half bottles as cleanskins many years ago for a fiver each. I rarely think to open a VP, and it was the perfect way to finish off a casual Christmas BBQ.


Deep ruby colour. Intense nose with raisins, Christmas cake and brandy. The palate was rich without being over the top, a little viscous, more Christmas or fruit cake, with the brandy spirit providing some warmth.

No sharp edges or alcoholic heat, just a round, mouthfilling and very satisfying drop.

Cheers

Thanks for the heads up. Think there a couple buried somewhere and need to be found. I recall some interesting orange citrus notes.

I have a few of these left as well. I bought 4 dozen and gave most of them away as gifts for attending my 40th. I put personalised labels on them and many of our friends commented about how they loved them. Quite a few mates bought up big.

Cheers
