âMy favourite sub-category of tawny as this combines the freshness of youth with complexity of age: lovely reddish-tawny hue with a toffee and dried citrus character on the nose and palate, now smooth and silky with creamy texture (the concentration of age), the sweet fruit (that is the hallmark of Grahamâs) offset by a streak of fresh acidity on the finish. A seamless melange of glorious flavours.â
