Tasting Notes

Features beautiful perfume, evoking rose, cherry, licorice and tobacco. Elegant, delicate even, with fine harmony and refinement. Cherry and raspberry flavors are persistent. Lacks the power of a 2001 or 1997, but shows finesse and filigree. Should come around sooner than the 1997.-Biondi-Santi non-blind retrospective (July 2012). Best from 2018 through 2050. 867 cases made.
