Comment:
Davisscholar
25. Mar 2015
Starts promising, but shows multiple flaws/problems.
Initially musty, with brown sugar notes and Cognac-like perfume. With water, more vanilla, raisin, but also strong cardboard note.
On the palate, sweet, round and rich caramel flavor.
Very short finish due to excessive use of caramel coloring.
