1996 Vesuvio
Posted: 03:23 Sun 26 Aug 2012
Purple and primal in color
A violet nose that still shows hints of its youth. A touch of freshly ground allspice and baking spices mixes with evaporiating spirits that leaves an impression in the nasopharynx.
Medium to lighter mouthfeel of blackberries and a light blend of blueberries mixed with some stewed spiced plums. This finishes slightly bitter showing off its time in oak remind me of an extra bitter dark chocolate.
89-91.
