Palette is fresh with berries and a very smooth taste. — 7 years ago

Gorgeous tawny color. Aromas of nail varnish, cherry liquor, vanilla bean, coconut, hazelnut, brandy, quince, and dried fig. Mouthfeel is voluptuous. Flavors echo the nose plus additional smoky notes, cherry pie, and subtle ginger, coriander, and licorice spices. Long, unctuous finish. Wonderful 24 year expression from Mars! — 8 years ago

Oloroso sherry in color. In your face sherry aromas of hazelnut, black currant, dried red fruits, almond, honey, vanilla, smoke, and subtle floral notes. Gorgeous mouthfeel, very, very subtle peat notes in the back palate. Finish is a warm blanket right out of the dryer! Amazing! — 8 years ago
