Critics Ratings
‘A now fully mature nose still has a trace of wood framing pretty and lightly spiced earth and red berry fruit aromas that complement well the rich, delicious, round and all but fully resolved middle weight flavors that are mouth coating and solidly, if not sensationally, persistent. I would be drinking this now and over the next decade as it will soon go completely secondary. Tasted only once recently.’ - Allen Meadows, Burghound.com (Jun 2010)
