Lheraud Grand Champagne 1973 Cask Sample #3

Nose: Brown sugar, carob malt balls, warm leather, peach gummy, unctuous.

Palate: Brown butter, caramelized peaches, tropical everything – all the notes above but an overwhelming sweetness

Rating: 6 / 10 – the sweetness is so overwhelming it feels nearly artificial. That aside this is delicious. We asked and there swear it has no additives.
