“Mixture of toasty and fruity/floral notes. All not yet as harmonious and complex as the 1998s. But overall quite successful.”

“Tasted as a 5cl sample. In the nose ne decent portion of dead fruit, esp. cherries. In addition, fresh wood and dark chocolate. Grassy Agricole notes are only very discreet to guess.On the palate woody flavors continue. In addition, a touch of lime, vanilla, cocoa and raisins. Quite little happens in the finish. Overall, an easy drinking but tasty Agricole.Edit: with longer time in the glass, the herbal agricole notes come through both on the palate, as well as on the nose then.”
