"This is a clear step up in virtually every facet with another dimension of aromatic elegance and complexity and the power and sheer force of expression is something to behold. This is painfully intense, refined, focused and pure with its big, rich and sweet flavors that despite all the punch, come across as reserved and as holding something in reserve."
