Tasting Notes

Nose

Defiantly smoky, with just a slightly sour lactic note in the background. Lightly tarry with an attractive masculine sweatiness.Gloss paint.

Palate

Oily giving it a smooth texture. Surprisingly understated and tense with peppery smoke, dry leaves, then a silvery lift buttercup. Seashore.

Finish

Long smoked. Slightly hard.

Comment

The best of this trio but lacks interactive maturation.
