Nose: Rich notes of earthy vanilla, cinnamon, dried fruits and furniture polish. With time lots of red berries as well, and milk choclate.
Taste: Full bodied. A tad bitter at first - think bitter orange marmalade. Dark chocolate, vanilla and caramel. Some oakiness.
Finish: Long finish. Turning a little dry now and a bit more oaky. It has a mild astringency. Ginger, dried fruits and also pepper and leather in the end.
Comment: Yeah, I can drink this!
