Tasting Notes
-
Burghound, April 2010,
Score: 92Relatively heavy reduction almost completely blocks the nose though the rich and full-bodied flavors possess excellent mid-palate concentration and a seductive mouth feel on the long, delicious and impressively complex finish. My score offers the benefit of the doubt that the reduction is simply a post-bottling phenomenon that will clear up in time. However, should you be curious enough to sample a bottle young, I would strongly advise decanting it first. Drink: 2023+.
