Critic tasting note: "Deep dark opaque ruby, purple reflections. Intense black berry confit, sweet spices, some bourbon vanilla, ripe plums, heart cherries, delicate touch of caramel. Powerful, intense and textu pronounced in fruitiness, fine acidity, dark berries, fine toasty aromas echo, liquorice, coffee and nougat on the finish, lingers long, good ageing potential." - 97/100, Falstaff
