Planteray Barbados (Saint Estephe Cask) 2018
Plum and red-wine notes lead here — the Saint Estèphe wine-cask finish shows clearly, with wood and leather sitting underneath the fruit. At 50.6% it's got some backbone but stays approachable. Several tasters call it fruity and a little unusual; one wasn't sure if he liked it, then decided the oddness worked in its favor. A well-made Barbados that goes its own way.

Fruity, wine-cask Barbados with a leathery edge Most land around solid-to-good — the wine-cask finish makes it fruity and a touch strange, which is exactly what wins people over rather than putting them off.

Vintage 2018. With 8.0 out of 10 it is a very good bottle, although not the top of my ranking.

I like the next Planteray a bit better. This time Barbados, so very fruity Haigerloch nose, plum is recognizable. On the palate also very fruity, but a bit of cask and wine can also be detected.

Next up is the Planteray Single Cask from Barbados. On the nose, it smells relatively fruity but also a little like wood and leather. The taste is quite solid, with a little fruit coming to the fore. Quite solid
Review by Martin Ekrt
I expected more boredom, but this smells interesting. Maybe it's because of the finish, as it slightly hints at yeast with vinegar, but fruitiness with some candy and wine prevails. The taste is also quite strange, I actually don't know if I like it or not. That weird otherness is ultimately more of a good thing for me.

Wine sweet almost like fiji

Sourness at the end, really like I was drinking red wine, good.
