Michael Jackson
85- Nose
- Less obviously smoky than the Bordeaux finish. More perfumy. Drier. Dried fruit?
- Palate
- Smooth, light on the tongue. Develops some fruitiness.
- Finish
- Spicier. More lively. Seems crisp at first, but lingers very warmly, with late brown sugar and salt.
- Comment
- Port often leaves a toffeeish note, but not in this case. Perhaps needs a bit more maturity.
Jim Murray
87- Nose
- Light and juicy, the peat is little more than a distant echo. Sweet malt adds weight, but not much.
- Palate
- Much more peat on the early arrival, several layers of oak and then a brilliant rush of fruit and then more clean peat and a wave of spice.
- Finish
- Medium length but remains clean, crisp and softly peated.
- Comment
- Really impressive balance and complexity. Very laid-back and understated. Great stuff.
