Nose

Aromas of treacle toffee coated apple, prune, walnut, hazelnut and citrus. A corn-like note and developing chlorinated rye-like notes as well. Very clean and lightly herbal with a touch of violets and camphor.

Palate

Dates in syrup, then chewy wood tannins and herbal accented spices. Walnuts, prunes and that camphor and herbal rye-like character on the middle. Water sweetens the oak. \n

Finish

Good length. Very herbal and dry. Longer and sweeter with water.\n

Comment

Now that’s an impressive oak monster. Like a high rye content American, but I don’t think it is.
