Overall
Score
7.9
Nose
Amazingly green and young. Grassy and slightly tart. The oak is sweet and relaxed.
Palate
As mouth-watering as it gets: outwardly young at first, sweet and then the spiced oak intensifies.
Finish
Medium length, vanilla rich with an oaky fuzziness at the finale. Also a late barely audible echo of smoke.
Comment
A simple amazingly clean dram that belies its years.
