Spontansauternes McDonald

2012 BTL stored well BB23/1/23. Aged in Yquem barrels. Coming out of the bottle it's very musty, almost mouldy. After sometime this has burned off and it has woody earthyness. Sour apricot and grape must. Long smooth finish. Maybe better opened earlier.

Black (2014) McDonald

Bottle from my cellar. This is mind blowing. Huge malt, vanilla sugar, coffee syrup. Nicely bitter, ropey molasses finish. Salty and medicinal notes from the barrel aging.
