This is my first “La Favorite”, and sorry to say I’m not impressed. The nose is extremely weak, hard to recognize any aroma at all, not even after warmed up in my hands. In mouth it’s the same initially, but after resting a while it’s was possible to recognize the tastes. The finish is quite long and tastes the same as at the palate.
After resting this one it gets really nice. I Unfortunately the price doesn't match what you pour. Still very fruity and fresh with spices and wood. Only very lightly dry.
Good but not wow. Nice woody taste, some fruits and spices.
An Nase und Gaumen deutlich frisch und grasig sowie ordentlich Würze. Finde dieses Profil hier leicht besser als das des 2010ers.
