Overall
Score
8.6
Nose
Dense, walnutty sherry with hints of wood smoke, Armagnac-esque prunes and dried fruit along with hints of freshening citrus, minerals and late mocha and earth notes.
Palate
Intense oxidised fruit and treacle. Quite nutty with walnuts, spice and dark coffee. Becomes rather tannic on the middle which gives it a very raw cask feel. \n
Finish
Reasonable length with lingering dry, slightly bitter tannins and a smoky after-taste
Comment
Bitter at the end, but this certainly has its merits.
