Domaine Séailles 2000 Cask #17 53%

Nose: Reminds me a lot of the 1997 cask #27, but a little less intense and maybe more notes of honey. A balance that other cask truly needed. This is promising. Cedar. Raspberry jam tartlets. Fennel, more earthy on the nose. Toasted fennel seeds.

Palate: A very pleasant spice. Cedar. A lovely balance of wood, spice, and herbal.

Rating: 7 / 10 – yum yum. Was delicious when I visited and its still freaking awesome.
