Tasting Notes

Nose

Cola bottles, plum pudding and autumn leaves. Maraschino cherries, venison with a berry sauce. More dried floral character with water.

Palate

More of that cola bottle note, with dark fruits too and some sulphur.

Finish

More sulphur: roast beef and peanuts.

Comment

I enjoyed it, but I am sensitive to that sulphur/meaty character of certain sherry casks. That finish is a hindrance to the drink, not a help.
