From magnum. Wanted to score this on day 2 as on day one it had too much of the typical tar which it didnt lose during the evening (after a 4 hour decant). It is powerful yet on the second day it smoothened out a bit. Though still a lot of tar and leather in the nose. Missing a bit of the chocolate which I often find. — a month ago
The aromas and taste have evolved. Delicious old fruity aromas and flavors. Tannins are still gripping so it hasn't fully developed. Black fruit. A little old wood funk and brett. Slightly warm on the finish. Amazing overall. 14% abv — 8 years ago
