One taster called it "very unique" — musty wine and nuts on the nose, then Barbados spice that turns woody with a bit of sweetness and a slow chest burn. Red fruit, honey, tobacco and young oak run through it. The Riversaltes wine cask is prominent but well tied in. Several found it more drinkable and sweeter than the 8g/l dosage suggests.

How does West Indies Plantation Riversaltes Wine Cask 2014 taste?
Summarized by AI from 20 community reviews.
Wine-cask Barbados, nutty and spiced sipper A solid, unusual Barbados pour where the wine cask leads. Most enjoy it over ice as a slow sipper, though a couple found the nose thin and one wouldn't buy a full bottle.

On The Rocks: On the nose it has a VERY unique aroma of musty, wine and nuts with some mild woody notes. Taste has a strong spice up front as you would expect from a Barbados rum… but it transforms into more woody/oak notes with some initial sweetness and delayed chest burn with the musky notes slowly growing. Finish is long with the mild chest burn continuing with a spice and nut mixtures with woody notes all coming together and goes slightly bitter. This is a very unique rum that I don’t think I have experienced anywhere else. This is not a flavour bomb but is also something neat yet different. This is enjoyable as a sipper over ice as a gentleman’s drink. Mixed Pepsi Zero: On the nose musky Pepsi Zero. Taste is slightly sweet but almost all the complexity is washed away. It would be a waste to drink this mixed.

Surprisingly easy to drink. I wouldn't have recognized it as a rum from Barbados. And I wouldn't have thought it has a dosage of only 8g/l, it tastes sweeter.
Review by Timo Groeger
Hiking through the ghost wood in Oelde. Here we have an average plantation. Red fruits and young wood on the nose. On the palate also red fruit and wood, plus it's quite spicy and also slightly nutty.
Review by Master P
Already an interesting cross, coconut, vanilla barbados where the wine influence from the barrel is already very formative. Slightly smoky on the nose too. Alcohol is slightly pungent but still ok. Bottle is not necessary, but ok for tasting.
Review by Johannes
The wine barrel is already prominent but well integrated.
Review by Daniel
Very thin on the nose, slight raisin and spice.
