Little licorice is joined by toffee, toasted hazelnut, a slight herbaceous character and powdered sugar notes on the nose. Lighter in the mouth, quite alcoholic upon opening but quickly finds a core of light red fruit, candied citrus, and dried fig flavors wrapped with a thin guaze of toffee and finishing with modest length and a slight biter licorice tone. Well balanced after all, tannins are resolved, it’s smooth, supple, a bit simple but totally pleasant and fun to drink.

Double decanted, tasted over two days. Immediate toffee nose, alcohol prominent. Garnet with some bricking. Very much tawny characteristics but a surprising amount of red fruit still on day two. Medium weight but sturdy and in a really good place right now.

Very light colour, so light that for a moment I thought it could be wasted. But it was delicious, mature, really good at this point. Drink soon.
