    Un nez plus frais qu’attendu, même si les esters sont bien présents. Fruits tropicaux légèrement fermentés, fruits jaunes. Le bois est en soutient. On sent la douceur du fût de sherry mais elle est ici complémentaire. Le sherry adoucit la bouche et les esters y sont moins prononcés qu’au nez. Un petit côté poivré relève le côté doux du sherry. La bouche est pleine, savoureuse, même si la complexité n’est pas au top. La finale est longue, équilibrée entre les fruits secs, le boisé, les esters et les fruits frais. Une très belle sélection de la Cave Guildive.

    Ladenbewertung Interessante Kombi mit hohen Estern und niedrigem Alkohol. Der Rum braucht Zeit für eine ordentliche Bewertung.

    Dok and a sherry cask is a potential for disaster, because as it is here the sherry cask really tones down the dock a lot. BUT, I think it works here rather nicely. In terms of drink ability this gains a lot. Well done

    nach dem 9GRF SBS ein weiter 2018 DOK mit PX finish, nun allerdings schon 6 Jahre im Fass statt der 1,5. Neben den vergorenen Früchten an der Nase auch eine süssliche Würze. Am Gaumen erstaunlich zupackend, trotz der ‚nur‘ 54%. Gefällt mir ganz gut, fast schon süffig für einen DOK 😄
