For me, still the reference matured Clairins. Perfect balance between distillate and barrel, complex, independent and intense, with well integrated alcohol. At the issue price, a fantastic PLV.
Absolutely successful. Rather sweet and mild.
Very enjoyable and suitable for the occasion this evening.
Weiterhin der beste Clairin, den ich im Glas hatte. Ist sicherlich nicht der komplexeste und der Einfluss des Bielle-Fasses überlagert den Charakter des Sajous. Aber ich mag den Fasseinfluss sehr. Mild, süffig, angenehme Süße, Fruchtigkeit und das zu einem sehr fairen Preis.
