Nose: Rich notes of earthy vanilla, cinnamon, dried fruits and furniture polish. With time lots of red berries as well, and milk choclate.

Taste: Full bodied. A tad bitter at first - think bitter orange marmalade. Dark chocolate, vanilla and caramel. Some oakiness.

Finish: Long finish. Turning a little dry now and a bit more oaky. It has a mild astringency. Ginger, dried fruits and also pepper and leather in the end.

Comment: Yeah, I can drink this!
