"GUS'T😉NI"
"Une grosse claque bien lourde, terreuse et épicée. Là, on n'est pas sur les fruits. On est bien collés au sol. C'est chaud et huileux, fumé, boisé. Le sucre est là pour apporter la touche de gourmandise qui fait du bien. C'est vraiment très bon. Édit : aussi agréable à sentir qu'à boire. Hyper agréable et gourmand.. Nécessite une bonne aération mais aussi une bonne montée en température. Il gagne alors en gourmandise."
"Wow was für eine Granate. Danke danke danke Vincent. Glaube ich habe meinen neuen Favoriten von Diamond gefunden. Da brauch ich definitiv eine Flasche davon. Blind hätte ich auf Caroni getippt. Bin immer noch auf der Suche, aber die wird wohl leider ins leere laufen, wer die Chance hat sollte zugreifen. Eine wahre Erleuchtung"
"Im Blind-Tasting 100% Caroni. Wow, richtig geil!"
