amber colour, smells of smoke and marzipan (sweet almonds), in the mouth smoke and sweet walnuts, full body, not that sweet, more semidry, the mouth makes you think that the Oloroso used for this Cream was not that old, in the aftertaste smoke and marzipan (or sweet almonds), medium length, a good Cream with a good price quality ratio. I would prefer Lustau's East India Solera, though.

Light brown color. Caramel, cherry, orange and almond on the notes. Creamy texture, not oily. Fruit driven, with some floral nose, yet too light and simple for me.

Orange-brown in color with a nose of caramel and orange that hits you over and over like the surf hitting the shore. This is followed by secondary notes of brown sugar and roasted peanuts. Extremely viscous, coating the palate and leaving a lovely warm sensation that makes you want to continue swallowing hoping to savor every last drop of the wine. Lots of vanilla and caramel on the palate with a unique flowery finish. Not a summer wine however. I imagine a brisk fall day where you can just barely see your breath, yet the wine creates a lovely warm and snuggling sensation. 4/5

Light golden brown in color. The nose shows dark brown sugar, madagascar vanilla bean, burnt orange, and molasses(light). Medium acidity and a medium viscousity makes sure that this one does not weigh down the palate. Roasted nusts, and fruits, don't really show up untl after you swallow when all of a sudden cascading flavors of brown sugar, milk chocolate, roasted nuts, and light fruit notes. Great for a night by the fireplace. 3.5/5
