“Wieder mal ein sehr guter und typischer Vertreter des 2003 TDL-Jahrgangs mit der so prägnanten Minznote. Durch die leichte Reduzierung ist diese Abfüllung nicht so anstrengend trinkbar, eher ein easy sipper.”

“This TDL somehow has two sides. The nose is very closed. First caramel. After 30min comes the great mint. On the palate then a great TDL profile. Here comes a great blend of mint, fruit and smoke. A nice TDL where the nose would have to open up a bit more.”
