This is a good Cask 23, but it’s by no means among the top ranks. Fairly tannic now, it shows oatmeal raisin cookie, blackberry, coffee, gingerbread and vanilla flavors. The tannins are wonderfully smooth, rich and intricate. It doesn’t have the balance for longterm cellaring, so drink by 2009, if not earlier.——S.H.(6/1/2007)—— 89
