| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Nov 30, 2009 Mély bíborvörös színe van amin egy közepes,krémes bézs színű hab csücsül ami szép lassan eltűnik.Egy kicsit megforgatva a poharat ez a hab egyből vissza jön.Illata hasonlít egy édes portóira amit egy öreg tölgyfa hordóban érleltek és ettől kissé csokoládés aromák is felszabadulnak belőle.Ízében ott van egy kis rumba áztatott mazsola,tejcsokoládé,pörkölt maláta és a gyümölcsös komló.Sűrű olajos teste van és nem túl élénk.Az alkohol gyorsan száll fel az ember agyába és melegíti a testet.Utóíze komlósan száraz és aszalt erdei gyümölcsös hosszan tart.Az "öreg egérfogó" nagyon a szívemhez törleszkedett.
Az első kortyokat sajnos túl hidegen próbáltam,várjuk meg míg "üzemi hőfokra" felmelegszik és akkor teljesen kitárulkozik és megmutatja minden szépségét.Fantasztikus! armando629 (995), Budapest, Hungary
