Review by Morgan Garet
Un diamond comme je les aiment très boisé, avec beaucoup de fruits rouges, d'agrumes amers, des épices et un caramel tantôt gourmand tantôt très poussé. Des notes de bonbons à la violette apporte une petite fraîcheur très agréable. L'alcool est peut-être un peu trop présent à mon gout.

MDXC sagt der Broker, was immer das heißen soll (Main Diamond ? Colored vielleicht). Einigermaßen sicher ist, dass es ist gefärbter Versailles ist. Das heißt dunkle Kräutersuppe, Lakritz und reichlich Röstaromen (verbranntes Karamell) und Dörrpflaumen. Schöne Nase ohne Überraschungen, smoother als z.b. der RA MDXC (allerdings ist meine Flasche schon tüchtig oxidiert) Im Mund: Keine Überraschungen. Er schmeckt wie er riecht. Sehr röstig, die in der Nase präsentieren Trockenfrüchte treten etwas zurück. Der Rum ist ziemlich bitter, was m.E. aber eher von der Färbung als dem Holz kommt. Alkoholintegration ist in Ordnung. Der Abgang ist kurz und unspektakulär, aber der bittere Geschmack von verbranntem Karamell bleibt noch lange auf der Zunge. 2004 ist sicher nicht das beste Versailles Vintage, aber würde er offiziell REV heißen, wären die Bewertungen sicher durchschnittlich 5 Punkte höher.
Review by DomM
Nose starts off very nice and complex but develops into a very woody / burnt experience quickly after some time in the glas. Also woody and dark notes dominat on the palate. Finish is a little short ending on a rather hollow woody note. All in all not really bad imho, but a little unassuming with no real highlights.

25.09.2019 Had a nice meet up with friends at this nice hotel near the airport. Notes Dark in colour. Nose Wood, light roasted, anise, floral, faint coffee, plum, faint smoke. Palate Warm, wood, light roasted, light coffee, dried fruit, plum, medium dry, light earthy. Finish Medium to long, wood, light roasted, light coffee, plum, faint chocolate.

leider konnte ich nicht ausfindig machen, aus welcher Destille der RM stammt. Vielleicht ein junger Enmore? Die Farbe ist ziemlich dunkel für den eher jungen Jahrgang, vermutlich ist Zuckercouleur im Spiel? An der Nase recht blumig, gelbe Früchte, gebrannter Zucker, Vanille und Fass. Am Gaumen habe ich ebenfalls gebrannten Zucker, daneben Kakao, Holzfass und Tannine. Alles in allem nicht schlecht, aber auch kein Rum der in Erinnerung bleibt.

Un rhum pas assez original pour aller plus haut
Review by MarcT
Sitting in the cabin, watching the storm outside playing with the trees... Thought this one of the samples I brought was fitting. It is very closed to the nose, later after some water I get Licorice, Wood and burnt Caramel. This translates to the tongue and to the aftertaste. I am a bit disappointed, but it was good nonetheless. The ambience was fitting - a bit harsh alcohol burn, lots of roasted wood and outside the hard weather reigns.
Review by Thunderbird
Ist der Rum an der Nase noch angenehm mild, blumig und leicht nach Trockenobst erinnernd, verliert er am Gaumen deutlich… eine ganz kurze Süße und danach überwiegen bittrige röstige Aromen! Zudem ist der Alkohol nicht sehr gut integriert! Der Abgang bleibt fast identisch! Schade!
Review by Barnagricole
Nez très agréable après aération. À la bouche une acidité et amertume désagréable qui s'intensifie avec l'aération, note de cacao et café torréfié. Final assez longue sur le cacao et le cuir. Pas mauvais mais le nez était prometteur et la bouche déçoit.
