#4520 09.12.2023 This is a very fresh profile with a medicinal touch. The palate is well rounded with light glue and a faint smoky note. The finish is medium to long with a nice citrus touch. The empty glass has some faint tar and light caramel.
Parádní svěží clairin. Tachničnost je cítit po pár napití ve finiši.
Ein frischer angenehmer runder Clairin in guter Trinkstärke! Er ist für meinen Geschmack schon fast zu leicht, wass seine Qualität aber nicht im geringsten schmälert. Insgesamt ist er mehr auf der zitrus- und pflanzlichen (frischen) Seite. Ein Sipper für den Sommer
Nejlepsi z Vavalu, ktere jsem doted mel moznost ochutnat. Krasne svezi
