Un nez de graphite d’emblée, puis banane trop mûre et du bois. Du graphite en bouche des fruits trop mûrs un léger fumé. Une belle longueur avec de l’amertume. On a envie d’en reboire aussitôt. Une belle réussite ! Peut-être un peu trop de graphite ?
19.11.2011 This is a tasting i got as a bitthday present and it was held on my birthday. This happened shortly after I had to flee China with my son. My notes on this release. Fresh with roasted wood and a bit of smoke. Dried fruit and plum as well as leather and spices. Light and oily on the palate with added chocolate and spices. Medium to long light dry finish with licorice, wood and chocolate.
Auch wenn er etwas verdünnt ist, kommen die typischen Versailles Bleistift-Noten zum Vorschein. Gefällt mir gut!
