Mature nose, partly dried honeydew melon, caramel, prominent spicy oak. Full-bodied, high in alcohol, more carmel and dried honeydew melon on the palate, prominent spicy oak, hint of cocoa, mienral traces, slightly astringent tannins, persistent, medium depth, elegant spicy notes, very creamy, quite a firm strucutre, good finish. No longer as harmonious as it was when it was young, should be drunk soon.
