Review and Tasting


Sampled on 17/08/2011

Appearance:

Clear, dark, old mahogany amber with burnished copper highlights.

Aroma:

Heavenly nose beckons with delicately spiced Christmas cake fruit, cinnamon, tobacco, saddle room, cedar wood, hazelnut and wooden fruit box aromas.

Taste:

Tightly interrogated, luxurious, complex palate with ever-so-delicate olive- and linseed oil-rubbed dry spicy oak. Dried, nutty Christmas cake fruit beautifully balances the majestically spiced oak.

Aftertaste:

Rounded, delicately spiced long lasting, graceful finish. The good things in life come at a cost.
