Yeah right, from a Kia Niro to a Ferrari 250 GTO. This one was bottled in Scotland, and if we’re anywhere near the sumptuous old WIRD that Silver Seal had issued at the same time, we’re in for a treat. Fasten your seat belt… Colour: dark amber. Nose: naturally. Nosing an old Uitvlugt is like going see Botticelli at the Offices for the umpteenth time, you know exactly what to expect but you would just never miss the opportunity. Diesel oil, old varnishes, oil paint (the Offices, got it?), olives, new electronics, new tyres, fig wine, chocolate, fresh fermented tea… With water: metal polish and engine oil in majesty. Nosing the engine of that 250 GTO. Yeah right, who’s ever going to nose batteries? Although they do have smells, not obligatorily bad ones. Mouth (neat): it’s pretty strong and even a tad raw and rustic, but that’s actually an asset. Mind you, thirty years. Some varnish, some olives again, some engine oil, salted seashells, dog rose tea, old woods, ground coffee and raw cocoa… With water: oh! Please call the Anti-Silver-Seal Brigade! I mean, the Anti-Rummoporn Brigade! Perfect black olives, brine, oils, double ristretto, antiseptic, earth, chocolate… Finish: long, there. Lovely dryness and not even one microgram of sugar. Comments: whether this was sauced-up/obscured or not before shipping to Europe doesn’t matter. By the way, I forgot to mention Dutch liquorice
