“Relaxed Caroni with classic Caroni notes in the profile - but quite balanced. One of the early releases from 1999, but already showing the potential of the vintage. A nice "drinking Caroni" with a little air.”

“Very well balanced nose. Caroni notes are present and clearly identifiable however acompanied by quite some tropical fruits rather than dried fruits which you can find in other Caronis more often. With some time in the Glas dirty notes become more present. Also very balanced on the palate - some dirt and mineralis notes with notes from the cask and caramel fudge. In contrast to the nose I don‘t get much fruits here.”
