Beeswax on the nose, with layers of caramel and figs. The palate is also initially on a beeswax, with some figs showing up on the mid-palate and plenty of acidity on the finish to keep thing light and lively. This may very well be on the decline as the flavours aren't as vibrant as I would have expected.

The nose hints at mushrooms beneath the thick layer of dried figs, giving the impression that the bottle might be flawed. However, on the palate, the dried figs is clearly dominant, so if there is a defect, it is only very slight.
