Nose

Oily with classic pot still graininess. Gooseberry and under-ripe apple follow. Hugely ‘Bourbony’ oaked with what feels like some virgin oak. Coffeed with grippy spices.

Palate

The oils are lighter and it’s richer than the nose suggests. Again exuberantly oaked with a seriously intense spiciness enlivened by biting pot still graininess.\n

Finish

Long and slightly marc-like with plenty of lightly oiled dried fruit, marzipan. Seriously tongue tingling spices.\n

Comment

It displays both youthful and mature-ish notes. One thing it definitely doesn’t lack is oak though!
