“Verkostet am Catawiki Stand beim 1. Deutschen Armagnac Festival … die Flasche war 2 Wochen offen und recht Aromatisch. Eher im Low Ester Bereich aber sehr Fruchtig, mit viel buttriger Ananas an der Nase. Gaumen wieder fruchtig mit Butter und Ananas … zudem vollmundig lecker mit Grüner Banane und Piment. Etwas (gute) Holzbitterkeit und auch jodig lakritzartige Anklänge mit Wachs runden die Sache ab. Hat mir sehr gut geschmeckt.”
