Nose
Clearly influenced by wine, with blackcurrants, fresh red plums, raspberries, old roses, and a balsamic touch. Earthy smoke, roast meat, and hints of gunpowder are present, along with burnt fatty smoked bacon and dried mixed berries.
Palate
Vinous with red fruits in a jammy way, a slightly tannic, bitter edge, espresso, sour cherries, cranberries, pipe tobacco, nutmeg, black pepper, and liquorice. Peat plays a secondary role, accompanied by burnt fatty smoked bacon, black pepper, dank vegetal peat, and apricot & plum jam.
Finish
Long, with sour fruits, spices, and smoke, heavy on red wine notes. Greasy and fatty with ashy smoke, dank vegetal peat, floral potpourri, vanilla, steeping malted barley, and a touch of charred & juicy lemon.
