Overall
Score
8.2
Nose
Intense, a bit spirity. Oak prevails. Cedar wood. Cranberries. Sultanas. Opens on baking aromas. Red plum tart. Buttery and earthy as well. Unusual. In time lots of vanilla syrup.
Palate
Crisp but the alcohol is well mastered. Sweet dark fruit. Cooked damson plums. Dark chocolate with dried fruit.
Finish
Slightly fizzy. Fades away on an astringent note like walnut skin.
Comment
On the oaky side but lots of fruit as well. The alcohol is well controlled.
