Olivier's tasting notes
The first impression on the nose is of sweet vanilla. Aeration brings out well-caramelized nuts (pecans and chouchous from our childhood).
On the palate, as you'd expect, it's a real treat: dense molasses coats the palate, accompanied by vanilla and a hint of fresh almond.
The finish leaves almond lingering on the palate. Nuts (peanuts) return to the fore, once again coated in caramel, while other aromas gradually fade.
