Michael Jackson
87- Nose
- Strawberries and cream. Vanilla. Heady.
- Palate
- Firm, Slippery-smooth, cookie-like maltiness, spicy middle. Lots of flavour development.
- Finish
- Creamy, fruity. Like a Slavic sour cream pancake laced with Maraschino cherry brandy.
- Comment
- Complex. Entrancing.
Dave Broom
77- Nose
- Incense. Lightly oily (wood oil), russet apples and buttery notes. Quite firm. Some pineapple and then floral notes.
- Palate
- Medium bodied. Light cinnamon spiciness, then apple and a sparkling feel.
- Finish
- Fades, leaving a slightly bitter note.
- Comment
- Has good energy, but just grips slightly on the finish.
