A whiff of spices and vanilla is the first thing I notice on the nose, together with yellow (plum) fruit notes. The palate more than confirms this, with hints of mace and ginger, adding tropical fruits to the mix. Needless to say then that this is quite complex, certainly when roasted nutty notes are added as well. The mouth feel is quite oily. Maybe this deserves an even higher score (92-93)? The finish is a bit thin though.
