Overall
Score
7.6
Nose
Sawn oak and hayloft. Nutmeg and cedar, with some dark chocolate and espresso. Rolling tobacco and raisin. A little blackberry jam, plasticine and waxed canvas.
Palate
Light and silky. At first, slightly woody, with cigar tobacco and allspice, but this recedes as some blackcurrant emerges. A touch waxy. Black English breakfast tea, with a dollop of caramel.
Finish
Medium. Tannins become more assertive, but not too drying. The spices linger.
Comment
Pleasant, but not quite delivering on the complexity.
