Sherry and ripe fruit characterise the first nose. Nice complexity. A slight bitterness comes in addition to the first fruity notes.
In the palate, the first impression is a nice sherry presence too and a light woody influence. Very pleasant, but slightly less complex than the nose was.
Nice finish, first dominated by this slight bitterness which was already present in the palate and than development on sherry to end with clear woody notes.
2009A very smooth smell, nicely fruity, nice floran hints.
The mouth is perfectly in the mood of the nose with some discrete and fine woody hints. The taste is rather difficult to describe precisely, sweetness on the foreground and slight superimposed bitterness. Very nice finish, rather long and very smooth.
A touch of plum at the end. A very special dram, nicely complex, without any aggressivity but with lots of personality.
2006Quite a farmy nose, smells of earth and wet hay with some smoke hints. Discrete plum touches on the background.
In the mouth, pleasant malty and chocolate notes which are quickly completed by a touch of citrus fruit. A nice complexity the nose did not really announce.
The finish is long and pleasant and prolongs the malty and chocolate notes of the mouth in a kind of enhancing process making it a kind of apotheoses by amplifying the sensations.
