    just a hair thin on the palate but ultra sessionable. reminds me of a lighter version of SLDs heavy style. Savanna vibes in the finish too.

    The alcohol could be a little better integrated. Taste otherwise nice fruity, typical profile of a Bellevue 98.

    The nose is fat and seductive. We find chocolate and roasted notes. It is rather fresh and powerful despite the fact that we are "only" at 47.9%. And it is very fruity (apple-dry fruit-tropical fruit). We validate, let's go to the tasting! In the mouth it is perfectly dosed. The fruitiness of the nose is present (pineapple, banana, red fruits ...) but to a lesser extent than the nose (as is often the case with agricultural products). Coffee, chocolate, burnt sugar and beautiful noble wood (not the one from Ikea). The finish is rather complex and exciting on ripe banana and fresh mint.

    Anotjer nice tasting i went to but didn't have the time to add here until now. The nose is very fruity with nuts and caramel and a hint of grass. The palate tales off where the nose ended and this one should be rested because it actually evolves both on the nose and palate. Again fruity with smoky wood, caramel and vanilla are trailing and at the end a hint of tobacco. The palate is oily and very well balanced. The finish is medium long with wood, dried fruit and caramel.
