"A very successful bottling from Swiss Guildive. A classic 1998 with Caroni machine shop markers but counterbalanced by fruit aromas and cooked pineapple in particular. An alcoholic nose at first, but the pineapple and the dirty side are there immediately afterwards. A little smokiness on the palate, still with fruit and tire. A very long, velvety, elegant finish with chocolate. Still available from Guildive at a fair price for a Caroni of this class... a little below the 1996 Caroni all the same. Much better than the Caroni Adelphi in direct comparison."

"Intense and nicely balanced on the nose with a lot of sweetness, fruits, spices and a hint of dirt. On the palate also very nicely balanced with sweet notes (milk chocolate), wood and some fruits. Dirty notes are relatively tamed with tar and rubber towards the end. More on the elegant side of the 98 vintage. Drinks dangerously easy :)"
