In this tasting, the '15 Lytton Springs seemed to be showing some age, though still silky smooth and delicious. The dark currant, plum, macerated strawberry, and blackberry fruit flavors are a little more muted than in its youth. Nevertheless, a classic, elegant Lytton Springs, and my concern about age may be a one bottle aberration. - HK 2021-08-14
