Overall
Score
8.2
Nose
Deep with classic fruit cake notes. Some woodsmoke underneath along with liquorice, tomato leaf and varnish.
Palate
Sultanas and chocolate-covered raisin. Layered with some rose petals and a chewy quality. Just enough grip to strike a balance between spirit and cask oak.
Finish
Long and thick.
Comment
It’s big, it’s oaky but it’s lovely (because it’s balanced).
