level better bottle than Trois Riviéres 1997. I smell sweet wood, vanilla and again the ubiquitous flowers. I really like this.
Review by Paul Segui
On sent +++ la canne très frais et rafraîchissant mais assez costaud À regoûter Regoûte, pas eu un coup de foudre, bien boisé aussi et pur agricole, arômes de réglisse quand on laere bien, superbe longueur en bouche par contre mais j'y mettrais pas 130e
