Nose: Rich luscious and sexy sherry profile. Very sweet. Golden syrup. Honey. Dried fruit especially plums and raisins. A tad vinegary. And a tad meaty too going to bouillon country quite fresh for the age of 21!
Palate: Pepper, plum juice. Double espresso getting dry with a peppery edge going on.
Finish : Dark chocolate. Espresso and pepper. Plum jam.
Bottom line:
This is a very good dram, thick, powerful nose and palate, one sherry lovers and sherry heads will surely appreciate. I was a bit surprised by the peppery tang on the palate I was not expecting, but is not unpleasant. I would rate this one a point or two less than the 15 year old. Recommended if you appreciated sherried drams and liked the profile of the 15 year old and want to dive deeper into the Glendronach offering.

Thanks for the good review. Thinking of getting this one but it seems as if the recent crop of sherry expressions muddle into one another with no real discernable flavor profiles. What do you think?
