The great weight of fruit here is more savoury and evolved with mint, meat, spice and then there's damson, a perky cherry-skin zip adds lift and energy. Palate quite tight, rich acid core, fruit is wound in but there, then more spice, woodland fruits too. There's a nicely structured backbone and good power and drive. This is elegant, fresh cigar notes and wood spice. Meaty too and there is that soft licorice once more. Good length - impressive stuff. L&S (Apr 2017)
