Tasted blind. This is slightly darker than #11 (Barros). There are floral aromas, along with figs and raisins. This is oxidized, but seems a bit different and unique in its character, at least for a wine. The aroma is almost malty sweet like a Belgian Special B or Belgian Aromatic malt. In the mouth, there is thick brown sugar flavor, along with more fig, and some lime. Wonderful oxidation! This might be off-putting for many, but I like it. 93+ points.
