June 24, 2023 - Powerful and dark plum and blackberry on the nose. Again very powerful on the palate with spicy blackberry jam, burning alcohol yet smooth soft and long. Sweet and spicy finish. A bit overpowering.

om42 Does not like this wine:
May 19, 2017 - Possibly we held onto this for too long? Very one dimensional - huge coconut, fruit and heat - add rum and you may have an interesting drink.
