    Sweet, woody and fruity from nose to finish. The balance is perfect and I still have 2 backup bottles in the back of my shelf :-)

    Al naso miele, frutti rossi, prugne, legno, vaniglia. Nel gusto si ritrovano gli stessi sentori percepiti al naso, con aggiunta di note floreali e leggermente speziate/tostate. Il finale è lungo e corposo, con retrogusto lievemente terroso/ammuffito. Mi sarei aspettato una legnosità più marcata come nel 1999, e meno prugne. Ha però una perfetta rotondità e un aroma complessivo unico. Ho provato a miscelarlo con qualche goccia di Montebello1948 per cercare di ricreare il sapore e le note fumose dell' Old Flibuste33yr e il voto sale di qualche punto tra i 94-95
