95 Points

Monday, October 12, 2015 - Clean and clear with medium garnet colour, developing.

On the nose it's medium+ intense w/aromas of: dark plums, ceder, tobacco, medicine cabin, oak, liquorice, meat, red pepper and some herbs. Developing

on the palate it has medium acidity, tannins and % and medium+ body and flavour intensity w/aromas of: tobacco, ceder, dark plums, red pepper, tobacco, oak, medicine cabin, much like the nose. Long aftertaste.

very well balanced, complex and insanely concentrated, very much more intese than expected when 12.5%. Incredible long finish and this has potential for many more years, difficult to believe that it was 26 years old. only thing i missed was a bit more acidity, but still outstanding world class quality, 95p
