Review by Oliver
Great Versailles in perfect drinking strength. Very fruity on the palate (especially dried apricots). Quite dry on the palate with significantly less fruit.
Review by Mirco
On the nose: wood, herbs, a bit of licorice and a slightly waxy note. On the palate dry and spicy with oak, tobacco and a tart, slightly bitter edge. Feels calm and fresh but somewhat balanced, leaning more towards elegant than intense.
Review by crazyforgoodbooze
Very round and unusually nutty, mild port mourant. It has something of roasted pine nuts with pesto genovese and tree resin. I like it very much! Could also be a Versailles vsg? Either way, a really great unusual PM!
Review by Frank
Pleasant spicy nose. The first thing that came to mind was honey. Fresh and slightly resinous it comes. Then fruity aromas of pear and slightly sulfured dried apricots also enter. Slightly woody, but more cherry with vanilla. Very nice fragrance. A spicy, tart note predominates on the palate. Bitter, toasty, woody and leather. Something pungent from resin and something dry from cardamom powder. Am the fruit most likely a hint of dried date. To the finish it goes in the direction of tea, something bitter and a little anise. Already nice Port Morant with slight weaknesses on the palate
