1 note disponible en français
Colour: Mahogany
The nose is clearly marked by sherry, with clear notes of plum jam. A very fruity nose that promises a real sherry monster. A real delight, made of promises of balance and complexity.
After the promise of the nose, I was expecting something sweeter, more gentle. Alcohol seems to be very present even if the nose did really not announce this. Balance announced by the nose is not really there. The mouth is drier and less colourful than I expected, but nonetheless very enjoyable, even if it is noticeably behind the pleasure announced by the nose.
The finish is lingering and also clearly marked by sherry. Some remote notes of coffee seem to appear after a short noticeable alcohol impression.
