Bottle (bought at the brasserie): Hazy, deep amber coloured with ruby spots, persistent small off-white layer with a little lace; moderate vinous-fruity nose (raisins) with a chocolatey background; solid sweet-bitter flavour, medium bodied; vinous, chocolatey anmd sweetish finish. A pleasant one.........

Bottle at home ... Deep dark black ... coffee with light woody smokey nose ... tinge citric in initial hit (bit of shock) ... then more rounded cocoa ... chocolaty ... light roast malt but there is just a light sourness throughout that just not quite right (im not sure its meant to be there) coco linger quite aq while. NIce but not sure at best. I have 2 more bottle i hope may give a better idea. more info soon :-) ... Bottle 2 (3 being given away) Much less citric, but still there a little. all round better for it but basically the same 3->3.3
